A monoline, handwritten script with a lightly slanted rhythm and open, rounded forms. Strokes are thin and smooth with occasional pen-lift feel and gentle curve tension, giving letters a buoyant baseline and variable spacing typical of natural writing. Capitals are taller and more gestural, often built from single looping strokes, while lowercase forms stay compact with simple bowls, narrow joins, and minimal terminal flourishes. Numerals follow the same lightweight, drawn-line construction and maintain an informal, consistent texture in text.
Well-suited for invitations, greeting cards, and lifestyle branding where a personal touch is desired. It works nicely for packaging callouts, social media graphics, short headlines, and quote layouts, especially when paired with a straightforward sans or serif for supporting text.
The overall tone is casual and personable, like quick notes written with a fine pen. Its looping capitals and relaxed rhythm add a friendly, slightly whimsical character without feeling overly decorative.
Designed to capture the spontaneity of everyday cursive—light, quick, and approachable—while remaining clean enough for contemporary graphic use. The expressive capitals and restrained lowercase aim to provide personality for titles and short phrases without overwhelming the page.
Legibility is strongest at display and short-text sizes where the distinctive capitals and airy spacing read clearly. In longer passages, the thin strokes and handwritten irregularities create a delicate texture that benefits from generous leading and careful contrast against the background.
