A delicate, monoline cursive with a steady rightward slant and smooth, continuous pen-like curves. Strokes keep an even thickness with rounded terminals and frequent entry/exit flicks, creating a quick handwritten rhythm. Capitals are tall and looped with simple swashes, while lowercase forms stay compact with narrow proportions and open counters; ascenders are prominent and descenders are long and curvy. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic, with slender forms and gentle curves that keep the set cohesive in running text.
Well suited for short-to-medium phrases where a handwritten voice is desired—greeting cards, invitations, quotes, and social graphics. It can also work for boutique branding and packaging accents when used at comfortable display sizes, pairing nicely with a simple sans for supporting text.
The tone is warm and approachable, like a neat personal note or signature. Its flowing loops and soft curves feel lighthearted and personable rather than formal, balancing elegance with everyday informality.
Designed to mimic tidy, flowing handwriting with a consistent pen stroke, offering a friendly cursive style that feels personal and contemporary. The restrained contrast and controlled loops suggest an emphasis on clarity and versatility for casual display settings.
Letterforms show consistent spacing and a controlled baseline bounce, with occasional flourish in capitals and in letters like g, y, and z where descenders create decorative movement. The overall texture remains clean and uncluttered, favoring readability over heavy ornament.
