A slim, monoline handwritten script with a tall, linear build and generous vertical reach. Strokes maintain an even, pen-like pressure with subtle contrast coming mostly from curves and terminals rather than thick–thin modulation. Letterforms are softly rounded and often looped, with high ascenders and long, elegant descenders that create a lively vertical rhythm. Connections between letters appear natural in words, while individual glyphs keep a consistent, slightly bouncy baseline and spacing that reads like careful, neat handwriting.
Well-suited to short, expressive copy where a personal touch is desired—greeting cards, invitations, social media graphics, and small lifestyle branding accents. It works especially well for quotes, names, and headings at moderate sizes, and can be paired with a clean sans for supporting text.
The overall tone is approachable and personal, like a quick note written with a fine pen. Its narrow proportions and tall loops give it an airy, youthful energy, balancing neatness with informal charm.
Designed to evoke neat, contemporary handwriting with a flowing, connected feel. The consistent fine stroke and tall proportions suggest an intention to stay light and legible while still delivering a distinctly human, written-by-hand presence.
Capitals are simple and linear with occasional flourish, and the numerals follow the same single-stroke, handwritten logic. In continuous text the frequent loops (notably in letters with ascenders/descenders) add movement and character, so line spacing benefits from a bit of extra leading to accommodate the vertical extents.
