A slim, monoline handwritten script with a consistent rightward slant and a lightly bouncing baseline. Letterforms are built from single-stroke curves with narrow bowls, tall ascenders, and long, tapered descenders, giving the line a vertical, elongated rhythm. Connections appear intermittently, producing a semi-joined flow that alternates between continuous cursive strokes and discrete, lifted forms. Terminals are soft and rounded, with occasional loop entries and exits that keep counters open and the overall texture light.
Well suited to short to medium lines where a personal, handwritten feel is desired—such as greeting cards, invitations, packaging accents, pull quotes, and social graphics. It works especially well at larger sizes where the thin strokes and looping joins can remain clear and expressive.
The tone is informal and personal, like quick, neat note-taking with a touch of elegance. Its thin strokes and flowing motion read as gentle and approachable, while the tall, narrow proportions add a refined, slightly whimsical character.
The design appears intended to capture a clean, modern handwritten signature look—lightweight and fluent—balancing cursive continuity with enough separation between letters to preserve clarity in display settings.
Capitals are simplified and airy, often formed with a single looping gesture that sets a graceful cadence in word starts. Numerals follow the same slender, handwritten logic and remain visually consistent with the letterforms, supporting mixed text without feeling out of place.
