A slender, monoline handwritten print with a consistent rightward slant and tall, condensed proportions. Strokes stay even and clean, with softly rounded turns and occasional tapered terminals that mimic quick pen lift-offs. Counters are open and simple, and the overall rhythm is light and slightly bouncy rather than rigidly geometric, giving the alphabet a sketchbook regularity.
Works best for short-to-medium text in applications that benefit from a personal touch, such as packaging, invitations, greeting cards, quotes, and product labels. It also suits headers and captions where a light, handwritten flavor is desired, and performs especially well at comfortable reading sizes where the thin strokes remain clear.
The tone is informal and personable, like neat handwriting used for labels or notes. Its light presence feels gentle and approachable, while the narrow, upright-leaning forms add a brisk, tidy energy without becoming formal.
Designed to emulate tidy, everyday handwriting in a consistent, font-like system—prioritizing a light footprint, legibility, and a casual note-taking feel. The slant and narrow build suggest an aim for compact, elegant lines that still read as hand-drawn rather than typographic.
Capitals are simple and legible with modest variation in widths, while lowercase forms keep a straightforward printed construction. Numerals match the same thin, continuous stroke and keep a handwritten character suited to short runs of text.
