A slender handwritten script with a lively, bouncy rhythm and loosely connected cursive construction. Strokes stay predominantly single-weight but show subtle pen-like modulation at curves and joins, with occasional tapered terminals. Forms are tall and narrow with generous ascenders and descenders, compact bowls, and an overall right-leaning, forward motion. Spacing feels organic and uneven in a natural way, and several capitals are more gestural and looped, functioning like quick, decorative lead-ins to the word shape.
Works well for short-to-medium display settings where a personal, handwritten voice is desired: brand marks, boutique packaging, invitations, greeting cards, pull quotes, and social graphics. It can also serve as an accent face alongside a neutral sans or serif in editorial or lifestyle layouts.
The tone is lighthearted and personal, like a neat note written quickly with a fine pen. Its narrow, vertical energy and looping capitals give it a friendly elegance—playful rather than formal—suited to modern, handcrafted branding that wants to feel warm and approachable.
Designed to capture a contemporary cursive handwriting look with a fine-pen delicacy, emphasizing tall proportions, quick loops, and an easy, conversational flow. The emphasis appears to be on charm and personality over strict uniformity, creating a lively word silhouette.
Uppercase letters tend to be more expressive and variable in structure than the lowercase, which reads more consistently as a flowing script. The numerals follow the same slim, handwritten logic, and the overall texture remains open and airy even in longer lines of text.
