A flowing handwritten script with a pronounced rightward slant and brisk, calligraphic rhythm. Strokes show noticeable pressure variation, with tapered entry and exit strokes and occasional thicker downstrokes that read as brush-pen influenced. Letterforms are tall and compact with tight sidebearings, frequent open counters, and a mix of connected and loosely connected joins depending on the letter. Ascenders and capitals often extend with long, arcing strokes, and terminals finish in fine points or soft hooks that add motion without becoming overly ornate.
Well-suited for short, expressive copy where a handwritten voice is desirable—logos and wordmarks, beauty and lifestyle packaging, social graphics, invitations, greeting cards, and pull quotes. It performs best at display sizes where the tapered strokes and flourished capitals can be appreciated.
The overall tone is light and expressive, balancing everyday informality with a polished, boutique feel. Its quick, gestural curves and slender forms suggest personal handwriting that’s been refined for stylish display use, giving text a friendly, romantic energy.
Designed to capture a modern handwritten signature aesthetic with energetic movement and refined stroke contrast, offering an expressive script for decorative, personality-forward typography.
Capitals are especially prominent and signature-like, with sweeping curves that can dominate a line when set large. The low x-height and narrow proportions give words a delicate texture; at small sizes the thin joins and tight spacing may call for extra tracking and generous line spacing to maintain clarity.
