A slim, monoline handwritten script with tall ascenders, narrow letterforms, and generous internal whitespace. Strokes maintain an even weight with a subtly wobbly, pen-drawn rhythm, mixing occasional joins with frequent pen lifts for a lightly connected flow. Capitals are long and linear with simple looped cues (notably in forms like Q and J), while lowercase stays compact with short bowls and high, narrow counters. Overall spacing feels open and slightly irregular, reinforcing an organic, handwritten consistency rather than strict geometric repetition.
Best suited to short to medium text where a personal voice is desired—signatures, invitations, greeting cards, quote graphics, and boutique packaging. It can also work for headings or pull quotes in lifestyle contexts, where its delicate line and airy spacing can breathe.
The font reads as intimate and relaxed, like quick notes written with a fine pen. Its light touch and looping gestures feel friendly and informal, with a breezy elegance that stays approachable rather than formal.
The design appears intended to capture the look of fast, neat handwriting with a fine-tip pen—light, tall, and slightly imperfect—providing a personable script for display use without heavy ornamentation.
Distinctive, elongated capitals and a set of very slender numerals give the face a high vertical cadence. The dotted i/j are small and understated, and several letters use simplified, single-stroke constructions that emphasize speed and spontaneity over calligraphic flourish.
