A delicate, handwritten print with tall, narrow proportions and a subtle rightward slant. Strokes are thin and largely monoline, with occasional pressure-like swelling and tapered terminals that feel pen-drawn rather than mechanically uniform. Letterforms are simple and open, with generous internal space and slightly irregular rhythm; bowls and curves are lightly looped while straight strokes stay wiry and upright. Ascenders are notably long, lowercase forms sit small relative to capitals, and figures follow the same spare, lightly sketched construction.
Works well where a light, handwritten voice is desired: short headlines, captions, greeting cards, invitations, and lifestyle packaging or labels. It is best suited to larger sizes and shorter passages, where the thin strokes and narrow build can stay clear and expressive.
The overall tone is informal and breezy, like quick notes written neatly but without fuss. Its light touch and slight wobble add a personable, human presence that reads as approachable and unpretentious, with a hint of playful charm.
Designed to emulate a quick, pen-written print style—clean enough to read, but intentionally imperfect to preserve a human, drawn-on-paper feel. The emphasis seems to be on lightness, vertical elegance, and an effortless note-taking rhythm rather than formal calligraphy or strict consistency.
Capitals are relatively prominent and varied in structure, while lowercase relies on minimal shapes and long extenders, creating a high, vertical cadence in text. Spacing appears a bit uneven in a natural way, contributing to the hand-rendered character and emphasizing openness over compact texture.
