A monoline, handwritten script with tall ascenders and compact lowercase bodies that create a lot of vertical whitespace. Strokes stay consistently fine, with smooth, pen-like curves and frequent loop construction in capitals and some lowercase forms. Letterforms are generally upright with a lightly bouncy baseline rhythm, and connections are intermittent—some characters join fluidly while others break into discrete strokes. Overall spacing feels open, with narrow counters and long, slender strokes that emphasize height over width.
Best suited to short-to-medium display text where its thin strokes and tall proportions can breathe—such as invitations, greeting cards, pull quotes, social posts, and light lifestyle packaging. It can also work for headings or signature-style accents when paired with a sturdier text face for body copy.
The font reads as light, breezy, and personable, with a gentle elegance rather than formal polish. Its looping capitals and airy texture give it a whimsical, romantic tone suited to soft, friendly messaging.
The design appears intended to mimic a quick, graceful handwritten note with minimal stroke variation, prioritizing an airy texture, tall letterforms, and expressive looping capitals for a personal, decorative feel.
Capitals are especially decorative and tall, often featuring extended entry/exit strokes that can dominate a line in display settings. Numerals share the same thin, handwritten treatment and appear simple and legible, though they keep the same delicate presence as the letters.
