A flowing handwritten script with pronounced thick–thin modulation that suggests a pointed-pen or brush-pen motion. Letterforms are tall and slender with long ascenders and descenders, and many strokes taper to hairline terminals. The rhythm alternates between bold, ink-heavy downstrokes and delicate connective strokes, creating a lively, uneven texture. Forms are mostly upright with occasional gentle slanting in curves; curves are smooth and looped, and several capitals feature extended entry strokes and graceful swashes.
Best suited to short-to-medium text where its contrast and flourish can be appreciated, such as logos, boutique branding, product packaging, invitations, greeting cards, and social media or editorial headlines. It can also work for pull quotes or accent text when paired with a calm sans or serif for body copy.
The overall tone feels refined yet friendly, balancing delicate sophistication with a lighthearted, handwritten charm. Its high-contrast strokes and airy spacing lend it a dressy, boutique feel, while the bouncy loops and informal joins keep it approachable and personal.
The design appears intended to emulate expressive contemporary calligraphy: tall, elegant forms with dramatic stroke contrast, decorative capitals, and fluid connections that create a personal, crafted impression.
Capitals are more decorative and attention-grabbing than the lowercase, with prominent loops and long cross-strokes in places. Numerals share the same contrast and tapering, with a handwritten irregularity that emphasizes personality over strict uniformity. At smaller sizes, the finest hairlines may visually recede compared to the heavier downstrokes.
