A monoline sans with a consistent rightward slant and very thin stroke weight. Forms are built from simple geometric curves and straight segments, with rounded bowls and smooth, continuous outlines. Proportions are tall and generally condensed, with generous interior counters that help maintain clarity despite the light strokes. Terminals are clean and unembellished, and the overall rhythm feels even and measured across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited for display typography such as headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and brand marks where its fine strokes and slanted stance can read as intentional and premium. It also fits packaging and poster work that benefits from a light, modern voice, especially when set with ample spacing and used at larger sizes.
The font conveys a calm, elegant tone with a light, understated presence. Its slender, inclined forms suggest a contemporary editorial sensibility—more poised than playful—suited to designs that want sophistication without heaviness.
The design appears intended to deliver a sleek, contemporary italic voice in an extremely light style, emphasizing elegance, economy of form, and a smooth reading rhythm. Its construction prioritizes clean geometry and a restrained palette of shapes to create a refined, modern texture.
The numerals follow the same slender, rounded construction as the letters, with open, readable shapes and minimal detailing. The sample text shows a smooth, continuous texture at larger sizes, where the thin strokes and slant create a graceful, forward-moving line.
