A very fine, monoline handwriting style with tall proportions and generous ascenders/descenders. Strokes are smooth and continuous with frequent looped entries and exits, giving many letters a softly connected, cursive feel even when forms remain partially separated. The rhythm is narrow and vertical, with rounded bowls, tapered-looking joins from pen-lift behavior, and occasional extended cross-strokes and terminal flourishes. Uppercase letters are especially elongated and gestural, while the lowercase maintains a small core body with prominent loops on letters like f, g, j, and y. Numerals are similarly light and linear, with simple, handwritten constructions and open curves.
Works best for short to medium-length text where its delicate strokes and looping forms can remain clear—such as invitations, greeting cards, boutique branding, beauty or lifestyle packaging, and pull quotes. It can also suit signatures or name marks where tall, elegant capitals help create a distinctive word shape.
The overall tone is intimate and airy, like neat personal handwriting with a refined, slightly whimsical edge. Its thin strokes and looping gestures feel gentle and elegant, lending a boutique, handwritten charm rather than a bold or utilitarian voice.
Designed to capture a refined handwritten look with a light touch: narrow, upright letterforms, looped cursive motion, and expressive capitals that add personality without becoming overly ornate.
In text settings, the contrast between very small lowercase bodies and tall capitals/ascenders becomes a defining feature, creating an expressive skyline. Spacing appears light and open, and long crossbars (notably on t and some capitals) add a subtle, calligraphic flourish that can become a visual accent in headings.
