A delicate, high-waisted sans with narrow proportions and generous vertical emphasis. Strokes are fine overall with clear modulation: verticals tend to read slightly stronger while horizontals and curves thin out, creating a crisp, contrasted rhythm without becoming calligraphic. Terminals are sharp and tapered, often finishing in subtly angled points, and curves are drawn with open, clean counters (notably in C, O, e, and g). The lowercase shows a modest x-height with tall ascenders and descenders, producing an elongated texture and a lightly spaced, shimmering line in text.
Best suited to display settings where its slim proportions and crisp contrast can read cleanly: magazine headlines, fashion and lifestyle branding, packaging, and poster titling. It can work for short text passages when set with comfortable size and tracking, but it visually excels where elegance and whitespace are part of the layout.
The font conveys a poised, fashion-forward elegance—light on its feet, slightly dramatic, and polished. Its narrow stance and tapered finishing give it a boutique, editorial tone that feels contemporary rather than strictly classical.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, refined display sans with a hint of contrast-driven sophistication—prioritizing tall proportions, clean counters, and tapered terminals to create an upscale, editorial voice.
Numerals follow the same refined logic, with thin, continuous curves and a distinctive, minimal feel (the 8 and 9 are especially sculptural). Round letters remain vertical and controlled rather than geometric, and the overall word color is pale and refined, favoring atmosphere over density.
