A delicate, handwritten script with a strong rightward slant and a narrow, upright footprint. Strokes read as pen-like and mostly hairline, with occasional pressure-like thickening on downstrokes, creating a crisp contrast without feeling heavy. Letterforms are tall and spare, with generous internal whitespace, long ascenders/descenders, and frequent looped constructions in both capitals and lowercase. Connection behavior is selective rather than fully continuous, giving words a flowing rhythm while keeping individual characters distinct.
Well-suited to short, display-oriented settings where a personal, refined voice is desired—such as brand marks, boutique packaging, invitations, headers, and pull quotes. It performs best at moderate to large sizes where the hairline strokes and tall loops can remain clear.
The overall tone is refined and intimate, like quick, stylish handwriting used for a signature or a note. Its slender strokes and looping gestures convey lightness and charm, while the tall proportions add a graceful, fashion-forward feel.
Designed to evoke modern, stylish handwriting with a signature-like presence, emphasizing graceful motion, tall proportions, and delicate stroke weight for a polished, personal impression.
Capitals are prominent and expressive, often built from single sweeping strokes that stand taller than the lowercase and create a calligraphic entrance to words. Numerals follow the same airy, handwritten logic with narrow shapes and simple curves, matching the script’s minimal, elegant rhythm.
