A delicate, monoline cursive with a pronounced rightward slant and tall, elongated proportions. Strokes stay consistently thin with smooth, pen-like curves and occasional tapered terminals, giving letters a light, floating presence. Uppercase forms are large and gestural with generous loops and open bowls, while lowercase is compact with a notably small x-height, long ascenders/descenders, and simplified joins that read more like a flowing handwritten script than a fully connected calligraphic hand. Numerals follow the same slender rhythm, with rounded shapes and minimal internal modulation.
Best suited to display settings where its thin strokes and tall, looping forms can breathe: boutique branding, fashion/beauty headlines, packaging accents, invitations, and short quotes. It works particularly well when paired with a restrained sans or serif for body text and when given ample tracking and line height.
The overall tone feels refined and personal—like quick, stylish handwriting used for a signature. Its tall, airy rhythm and soft curves add a romantic, editorial flavor while still keeping an informal, human touch.
Designed to capture a modern handwritten signature look with a light, elongated silhouette and an easy, flowing rhythm. The emphasis appears to be on elegance and personality over strict uniformity, aiming for expressive display use rather than long-form readability.
The script favors open, uncluttered forms and relies on verticality and spacing for rhythm rather than heavy stroke contrast. At larger sizes the graceful loops and long strokes become a key feature, while at small sizes the very thin strokes and compact lowercase can reduce clarity.
