A flowing handwritten script with a consistent monoline stroke and a steady rightward slant. Letterforms are built from rounded, open curves with frequent entry and exit strokes that create a gentle sense of connection even where characters remain separate. Capitals are taller and more flamboyant, with simple swashes and looped constructions, while lowercase forms stay compact with short extenders and small counters. Spacing and widths vary naturally from glyph to glyph, producing an organic rhythm that feels like quick pen handwriting rather than constructed calligraphy.
Works well for short headlines, signatures, captions, and display lines where a personal, handwritten voice is desired. It’s especially suited to invitations, cards, lifestyle packaging, and social media graphics; for longer passages, generous line spacing helps maintain clarity.
The overall tone is friendly and informal, with a light, breezy movement that feels approachable and conversational. Its looping joins and buoyant shapes give it a warm, personal character suitable for expressive, human-centered messaging.
Designed to capture the immediacy of natural cursive handwriting: quick, smooth strokes, relaxed proportions, and modest flourishes in the capitals to add charm without becoming overly formal.
Curves dominate over sharp angles, and many strokes taper slightly at turns, reinforcing a pen-drawn impression. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic, with smooth, open shapes and minimal ornamentation to keep the texture even in mixed text.
