A hairline monoline sans with a consistent rightward slant and generous open counters. The construction leans geometric—round letters are near-circular and straight strokes stay crisp—while terminals are clean and unadorned. Curves are drawn with a light, even stroke and slightly relaxed joins, giving letters a smooth, continuous feel; bowls and arcs often remain open enough to keep forms from clogging at small weights. Proportions are balanced with a moderate lowercase presence and clear differentiation between straight, diagonal, and circular structures.
Best suited to display settings where its thin strokes can breathe—brand wordmarks, editorial headlines, lookbooks, invitations, and refined packaging. It can work for short-to-medium text in generous sizes and with comfortable line spacing, particularly in clean, minimal layouts.
The overall tone feels quiet, airy, and contemporary, with a refined, fashion-forward restraint. Its light touch reads elegant and calm rather than assertive, suggesting premium, minimalist styling.
Designed to deliver an elegant, slanted geometric sans voice with maximum lightness and clarity. The emphasis appears to be on refined modern aesthetics and smooth circular geometry, prioritizing sophistication and visual air over robustness.
The slanted posture and hairline strokes create a strong rhythm in text, especially in sequences of verticals and diagonals. Circular forms (O/Q/0 and related lowercase) appear especially prominent, reinforcing a clean geometric character. Numerals follow the same thin, linear logic and remain unobtrusive alongside the letters.
