A slender, slanted handwritten script with a lightly brushed, pen-like stroke and subtle thick–thin modulation. Letterforms are tall and compact, with long ascenders and descenders and a notably small lowercase body, creating a high, airy rhythm. Many shapes are built from smooth, continuous curves with occasional sharp, tapered terminals and quick cross-strokes; counters stay open and spacing varies slightly in a natural, handwritten way. Capitals are simplified and linear, often formed from single sweeping gestures that sit above the lowercase texture without becoming heavy or ornate.
Works well for short-to-medium display text where a personal, signature-like voice is desired—brand wordmarks, beauty and lifestyle packaging, café menus, invitations, and social graphics. It can also serve as an accent face paired with a clean sans in editorial or web layouts, especially for pull quotes, headers, and callouts.
The overall tone is intimate and personable, like quick notes written with a confident hand. Its light touch and flowing movement add a refined, graceful feel while still reading as informal and human.
Likely intended to capture a quick, stylish cursive note with a light brush/pen feel—prioritizing gesture and elegance over strict uniformity. The narrow, tall proportions and small lowercase core appear designed to create a refined, high-contrast texture in headlines while keeping the handwriting character intact.
The design leans on momentum and gesture: joins and bowls often resolve into tapered exits, and several letters use compact loops that keep the texture tight. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic, staying slender and slightly bouncy, matching the script’s relaxed cadence.
