A cursive handwritten script with a gentle rightward slant and a lively, bouncing baseline. Strokes read largely monoline with subtle pressure-like modulation at joins and curves, and many letters finish with soft hooks or modest swashes. Uppercase forms are tall and open, often built from single flowing gestures with occasional cross-stroke flourishes, while lowercase shapes favor rounded bowls, narrow apertures, and long, tapering entry/exit strokes. Spacing feels organic and slightly irregular in a deliberate way, contributing to a hand-drawn rhythm; numerals follow the same flowing construction with curved terminals and a lightly calligraphic feel.
Well-suited to invitations, greeting cards, quotes, and short headlines where a personal handwritten tone is desired. It can also support boutique logos, beauty/lifestyle packaging, and social media graphics, especially when paired with a restrained sans or serif for supporting text.
The overall tone is friendly and personable while still feeling refined, like neat modern calligraphy used for thoughtful notes and boutique branding. Its looping forms and airy counters give it a light, romantic character, with enough motion and bounce to read as casual rather than formal.
Designed to mimic tidy contemporary handwriting with a calligraphy influence—prioritizing fluid connection, graceful loops, and expressive capitals to create charming, human wordmarks.
Capital letters provide the primary decorative moments, with several forms featuring extended crossbars or looped joins that can create distinctive word shapes. The font’s narrowness and lively joins make it most convincing at display sizes where the delicate curves and terminals remain clear.
