A smooth, monoline script with a consistent felt-pen stroke and gently rounded terminals. Letterforms are slightly slanted with a lively baseline bounce, mixing open curves with occasional looped joins. Ascenders are tall and narrow, counters are compact, and spacing varies subtly like natural handwriting, giving the texture an irregular but cohesive rhythm. Numerals follow the same informal, rounded construction for a unified set.
Well suited for short to medium text where a personable, handwritten voice is desired—greeting cards, invitations, gift tags, café menus, product packaging, and social graphics. It also works nicely for pull quotes, headings, and signature-style accents when paired with a clean sans for body copy.
The overall tone is warm and personal, like quick but confident note-taking or a friendly signature. Its flowing motion and soft curves feel upbeat and informal, adding charm without becoming overly decorative.
Designed to capture an everyday cursive look with smooth pen-like strokes and a relaxed tempo, balancing spontaneity with consistent structure so it stays readable in common display scenarios.
Capitals are simple and upright enough to remain recognizable while still feeling hand-drawn, and the lowercase maintains legibility through clear entry/exit strokes and open shapes. The script connectivity is selective, so words read as continuous handwriting while preserving distinct letter silhouettes.
