A monoline cursive script with a gentle rightward slant and an airy, open rhythm. Strokes are smooth and rounded with occasional looped ascenders and descenders, creating a light, continuous written feel while still allowing many letters to stand clearly on their own. Uppercase forms are taller and more flourished, with soft entry/exit strokes and simple, rounded terminals; lowercase maintains a consistent handwritten cadence with clean bowls and narrow joins.
Well-suited to short to medium-length display copy such as greeting cards, invitations, social media graphics, product packaging, and pull quotes where a personal handwritten tone is desired. It works best at larger sizes where the delicate stroke weight and loops can remain clear.
The overall tone is warm and approachable, with a playful, slightly whimsical bounce that feels personal rather than formal. Its lightness and looping gestures suggest an easygoing, conversational voice suited to friendly messaging.
Designed to evoke casual handwritten cursive with a light, flowing line and friendly character, balancing decorative capitals with readable lowercase for everyday expressive lettering.
Numerals follow the same handwritten logic, staying simple and legible with curved, open forms. In text, the spacing and letter connections feel relaxed and steady, producing an even gray value without heavy texture or sharp contrast.
