A very thin, monoline sans with a consistent rightward slant and softly rounded terminals. Curves are drawn with a superellipse-like smoothness, giving bowls and counters a rounded-rectangle flavor rather than geometric circles. Uppercase forms are narrow and lightly constructed, while lowercase maintains a straightforward, single-storey structure with open apertures and minimal modulation. Overall spacing reads a bit generous, helping the delicate strokes stay clear and keeping the texture light and even in text.
Best suited for display sizes where its thin strokes and rounded geometry can show clearly—such as headlines, brand marks, packaging, and refined promotional graphics. It can also work for short UI labels or navigation text in spacious layouts, where the light texture and slant add sophistication without visual clutter.
The font feels quiet and refined, with a contemporary, design-forward tone. Its soft rounding and light stroke weight create an airy, understated elegance that reads more editorial and minimal than technical or industrial.
The design appears intended to provide a minimal, modern italic voice that stays clean and approachable through rounded corners and open shapes. It prioritizes elegance and whitespace-friendly texture over heft, aiming for a sleek editorial or boutique brand aesthetic.
Numerals are similarly slender and rounded, with simple, legible silhouettes that match the letterforms’ soft geometry. The italic angle is steady across the set, and the uniform stroke behavior emphasizes a calm rhythm rather than calligraphic emphasis.
