A thin, monoline handwritten script with a consistent rightward slant and a narrow, tall overall proportion. Strokes are smooth and lightly looped, with frequent entry/exit gestures that keep forms feeling continuous even when letters are not fully connected. Ascenders and descenders are notably long, while lowercase bodies stay compact, producing an elegant, stretched vertical rhythm. Terminals are tapered and simple, and bowls and loops remain open and uncluttered for a clean, contemporary handwritten look.
Works well for short-to-medium text where a personal signature-like feel is desired, such as invitations, quote graphics, boutique packaging, or social media headlines. It can also suit light editorial accents (pull quotes, captions) when set with generous spacing to preserve its fine stroke and tall rhythm.
The font reads as relaxed and personal, like quick but careful penmanship. Its light touch and tall, flowing forms give it an understated elegance—friendly rather than flashy—suited to conversational, modern branding tones.
Likely designed to capture a neat, modern cursive handwriting style with an airy texture and elegant verticality. The emphasis appears to be on smooth rhythm, restrained loops, and a clean monoline stroke that stays legible while still feeling informal and human.
Uppercase letters are narrow and upright-leaning with minimal embellishment, pairing smoothly with the lowercase. Numerals follow the same light, handwritten logic, with rounded shapes and straightforward construction that matches the script’s gentle motion.
