A relaxed handwritten script with tall, slender letterforms and a noticeably forward slant. Strokes read as pen- or brush-like with gentle, organic tapering and occasional swell, producing a lively, uneven rhythm. Curves are open and rounded, joins are soft, and terminals often finish with quick flicks, giving the alphabet an airy, energetic texture. Uppercase forms are simplified and upright in construction but keep the same informal stroke behavior, while numerals are similarly narrow and fluid.
Works best in short-to-medium phrases where its lively, handwritten texture can carry the message—such as headlines, pull quotes, greeting cards, packaging accents, and social media graphics. It’s well-suited to branding elements that want a friendly, human tone, especially when paired with a quiet sans or serif for body text.
The overall tone is personable and approachable, like quick notes or informal headings written with a confident hand. Its spontaneous stroke endings and slightly bouncy proportions keep it feeling expressive rather than polished, leaning toward modern, casual charm.
Designed to mimic quick, natural handwriting with an easy flow and minimal fuss, prioritizing personality and momentum over formal calligraphic structure. The tall, narrow build and flicked terminals appear intended to keep word shapes compact while still feeling expressive.
The narrow proportions and light stroke presence create a lot of white space, which helps it feel delicate but also means it benefits from generous sizing and spacing. Letterforms favor simplicity over strict consistency, reinforcing the natural, handwritten character.
