A slender, pen-like script with a consistent, lightly modulated stroke and a pronounced rightward slant. Letterforms are built from elongated verticals and narrow bowls, with generous ascenders and descenders that create a tall, willowy silhouette. Curves are smooth and lightly looped, and terminals often finish in tapered flicks or simple hooks, maintaining a quick handwritten rhythm. Uppercase forms are more individualized and gestural, while the lowercase set stays compact and flowing, producing an overall clean, legible cursive texture.
Works well for short to medium display copy such as quotes, greetings, invitations, and branding accents where a handwritten signature-like voice is desired. It can also suit packaging and social media graphics, especially when paired with a simple sans for supporting text.
The tone is personal and upbeat, combining a relaxed handwritten feel with a touch of refinement from its tall proportions and tidy curves. It reads as contemporary and approachable rather than formal, suited to messages that want to feel human, light, and stylish.
Designed to capture the immediacy of quick cursive writing while staying polished enough for display typography. The narrow, elongated construction and restrained stroke modulation aim to deliver elegance without losing the informal, personal character of hand lettering.
Spacing appears relatively open for a script, helping words breathe in longer lines of text. Several capitals feature distinctive looped entries and cross-strokes that add personality, and the numerals follow the same lean, handwritten cadence to stay visually consistent with the letters.
