A tall, monoline handwritten style with narrow, elongated proportions and a lightly bouncy baseline. Strokes stay low-contrast and slightly irregular, mimicking felt-tip or marker drawing, with rounded joins and soft terminals. Letterforms mix simple printed shapes in the capitals with more looped, cursive tendencies in the lowercase, producing an informal rhythm; ascenders and descenders are long, and counters are open for a light, airy color in text.
Works best for short to medium-length copy where a personal, handwritten voice is desired—headlines, pull quotes, invitations, greeting cards, and casual branding. It can also suit packaging and posters where a light, friendly tone and tall, narrow footprint help fit text into tight vertical space.
The overall tone feels personable and upbeat, with an easy, conversational character. Its slight unevenness and looping details read as human and approachable rather than formal, lending a whimsical, notebook-like charm.
Designed to capture an everyday handwritten feel with clean legibility, combining simple uppercase forms with more playful, cursive-leaning lowercase shapes. The narrow, tall construction suggests an intent to provide a distinctive handwritten voice that stays readable and space-efficient in display settings.
Capitals are clean and legible with modest curvature, while lowercase forms show more connecting intent and occasional calligraphic-like loops, especially in letters such as g, j, y, and z. Numerals keep the same narrow, hand-drawn logic and remain clear at display sizes.
