A slim, hand-drawn cursive with a lightly pressured stroke and a gentle rightward slant. Letterforms are narrow and tall, with long ascenders/descenders and compact lowercase bodies, creating a high, airy rhythm. Strokes behave like quick pen lines—slightly uneven with occasional wobble and soft tapers—while joins and terminals often curl into small loops, especially on letters like b, f, g, and y. Spacing is open enough to keep the texture light, and the overall width varies naturally from glyph to glyph in a handwritten way.
Best suited to short-to-medium phrases where a personal signature-like voice is desired, such as invitations, greeting cards, boutique packaging, social media graphics, and pull quotes. It works well at display sizes where the thin strokes and looping joins can remain clear, and it pairs naturally with restrained sans-serifs for supporting text.
The font reads as personal and relaxed, with a soft, intimate tone that feels like neat everyday handwriting. Its looping gestures and light touch add a romantic, whimsical warmth without becoming overly formal or ornamental.
Designed to capture quick, confident pen handwriting with a consistent slant and looping connective logic, prioritizing an elegant lightness and informal charm over strict geometric regularity.
The uppercase set mixes simple, single-stroke constructions with a few more gestural forms, giving headings a spontaneous, handwritten feel. Numerals are similarly light and narrow, matching the script’s tempo and keeping figures visually unobtrusive in running text.
