A lively, cursive script with a pronounced rightward slant and high-contrast strokes that mimic a flexible pen or brush. Letterforms are compact and vertically oriented, with rounded bowls, tapered joins, and frequent entry/exit strokes that create a smooth handwritten rhythm. Ascenders and capitals carry gentle loops and occasional swash-like terminals, while counters stay fairly open for a script style. Numerals follow the same calligraphic logic, mixing rounded shapes with tapered ends for consistent texture in text.
Well-suited to short-to-medium display settings where a personable script voice is desired—logos, product packaging, invitations, social graphics, and editorial pull quotes. It can also work for subheads or short lines of text when generous spacing and size are used to preserve readability.
The overall tone feels warm and personable, balancing polish with a casual, handwritten charm. Its looping capitals and soft curves add a slightly nostalgic, boutique feel, while the steady rhythm keeps it approachable rather than overly formal.
Designed to provide a refined handwritten script look with expressive capitals and a smooth, rhythmic lowercase, aiming for an elegant yet friendly voice that stands out in display typography.
Uppercase forms are more decorative than the lowercase, with noticeable flourish on letters like A, B, G, Q, and R that can draw attention in headings. Lowercase maintains a consistent cursive flow, though connections appear more implied than strictly continuous, which helps preserve clarity in mixed-case settings.
