A delicate script with tall, slender proportions and dramatic thick–thin modulation. Strokes alternate between hairline entry/exit curves and heavier vertical stems, creating a crisp, calligraphic rhythm. Letterforms favor long ascenders and descenders, small counters, and compact lowercase proportions, with occasional looped terminals and subtle swash-like strokes. Connection behavior appears mixed: many lowercase letters feel written as a flowing hand, while some characters read more like standalone forms, producing a lively, varied texture in words.
Best suited to display typography where its hairlines and contrast can stay crisp: branding and logotypes, invitations and event materials, beauty/fashion packaging, editorial headlines, and short pull quotes. It will be more effective at larger sizes and with generous spacing than in dense, small body text.
The overall tone is polished and graceful, with a slightly playful, storybook charm from the looping terminals and high-contrast strokes. It feels boutique and decorative rather than utilitarian, lending a sense of ceremony and personality to short phrases.
This design appears intended to combine formal calligraphic elegance with a contemporary, narrow display footprint. The goal is a distinctive handwritten look that remains tidy and upright, offering decorative flair for titles and branded phrases without becoming overly ornate.
Capitals lean toward simplified, display-minded silhouettes with strong vertical emphasis, while the lowercase introduces more cursive movement through loops and curved joins. Numerals follow the same contrast pattern, with a mix of sturdy verticals and fine hairline curves that suits display settings.
