A monoline, handwritten cursive with a consistent rightward slant and gently looping stroke endings. Letterforms are tall and slim, with modest ascenders/descenders and compact lowercase proportions that keep counters open and simple. Curves are smooth and slightly elastic, and terminals often finish with soft hooks or tapered flicks, giving the alphabet a continuous, pen-drawn rhythm. Uppercase characters are simplified and signature-like, pairing cleanly with the more connected-feeling lowercase.
Well suited to short-to-medium text where a personal, handwritten voice is desired—such as invitations, greeting cards, quote graphics, social content, and small branding moments like tags or packaging labels. It performs best at display sizes where the delicate strokes and loops remain clear.
The overall tone is informal and personable, like quick neat handwriting on a note or label. Its light, flowing motion reads as relaxed and approachable, with a subtle elegance from the tall proportions and restrained loops.
Designed to mimic tidy, contemporary cursive writing with a light touch and an easy, flowing cadence. The emphasis appears to be on an approachable signature feel that stays legible while preserving the spontaneity of hand lettering.
Spacing feels naturally handwritten rather than mechanically uniform, which reinforces the organic cadence in words and longer phrases. Numerals follow the same slim, cursive logic, staying simple and readable while retaining the hand-drawn character.
