A narrow, handwritten cursive with tall ascenders and descenders and a compact lowercase core that keeps the x-height feeling small. Strokes show pronounced contrast with hairline entry/exit strokes and thicker downstrokes, giving a brush-pen/calligraphic impression without heavy texture. Forms are slightly bouncy and irregular in a deliberate, human way, with frequent loops (notably in b, f, g, y) and occasional extended terminals and swashes. Spacing is relatively tight and the rhythm is vertical, producing a slim, lively word shape in both title case and mixed-case settings.
Works best for short to medium display text where its loops and contrast can remain clear—such as invitations, greeting cards, boutique branding, product packaging, social posts, and headings. It can also serve as an accent face paired with a calm sans or serif for body copy.
The overall tone is charming and refined, balancing delicate hairlines with confident, expressive downstrokes. It reads as friendly and personal, with a whimsical, slightly romantic feel suited to upbeat messaging rather than formal documentation.
Designed to mimic neat, modern hand-lettering with a calligraphic edge: narrow proportions for compact wordmarks, high-contrast strokes for elegance, and playful looping terminals to keep the voice approachable and personal.
Uppercase letters are more decorative and varied, often using long lead-in strokes and open counters that add flair at display sizes. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic with slender proportions and simple, legible construction, matching the font’s light, airy texture in running text.
