A monoline sans with a consistent rightward slant and smooth, rounded construction. Curves are drawn with clean, continuous strokes and minimal modulation, giving letters a light, even rhythm. Counters are generous and open, terminals are simple and unadorned, and the overall texture stays uncluttered at text sizes. The set mixes circular forms (C, O, Q) with straightforward, slightly condensed diagonals (V, W, Y), creating a crisp, streamlined profile.
Works well for editorial headlines, pull quotes, and brand wordmarks where a light, refined presence is desired. It can also support UI labels, navigation, and packaging copy when set with comfortable tracking and adequate size to preserve its delicate stroke.
The tone is understated and contemporary, with an airy elegance that feels poised rather than assertive. Its slanted stance adds motion and sophistication, suggesting a polished, design-forward voice suitable for modern editorial and brand contexts.
Likely designed to provide a clean, contemporary italic voice that stays minimal and highly legible while retaining a gentle, geometric character. The focus appears to be on smooth curvature, open counters, and an elegant slanted rhythm for modern display and short-text applications.
Uppercase forms read clean and geometric, while lowercase keeps a restrained, single-storey feel in key characters (notably a and g), reinforcing a modern, simplified silhouette. Figures follow the same light, rounded logic, with clear differentiation between curved and straight elements for a cohesive line-up.
