A tall, narrow script with pronounced stroke-contrast: thick, inky downstrokes paired with hairline entry/exit strokes and fine connecting links. Letterforms are upright with a slightly irregular, hand-drawn rhythm, and many characters feature open loops, long ascenders, and slender counters. Terminals often taper to sharp points or delicate hooks, while capitals introduce extra swashes and varied starting strokes, giving the set a lively, variable texture across the alphabet and numerals.
Best suited for short to medium-length display settings where its contrast and flourishes can shine—such as invitations, greeting cards, boutique branding, packaging accents, and editorial or social headlines. It works especially well when given generous spacing and paired with a simple sans or serif for supporting text.
The overall tone is graceful and expressive, balancing polished calligraphy with a lightly quirky, handmade feel. It reads as friendly and decorative rather than formal or corporate, with flourishes that add charm and a sense of personal handwriting.
The design appears intended to emulate pointed-pen calligraphy in a condensed, modern display script, prioritizing elegance, verticality, and expressive swashes. Its slightly varied shapes and lively terminals suggest a deliberate handcrafted character aimed at decorative, personality-forward typography.
The sample text shows consistent baseline behavior and smooth joins in lowercase, while capitals stand more independently with more dramatic contrast and occasional asymmetric flourishes. Numerals follow the same calligraphic logic, with thin entry strokes and thicker verticals that visually harmonize with the letterforms.
