A crisp outline sans with monoline contours and an open, unfilled interior. Letterforms lean geometric with squared-off terminals and softly rounded corners, producing a tidy, engineered rhythm. Capitals are straightforward and balanced, while the lowercase keeps simple, single-storey shapes (notably a and g) that stay consistent with the outline construction. Curves are smooth and evenly tensioned, counters are generous, and joins remain uncluttered, helping the alphabet read clearly even with the lightweight, contour-only build.
Best suited to headlines and display typography where the outline can breathe—posters, large labels, signage, and UI moments like section headers or hero text. It also works well for technical or modern branding accents, especially when paired with a solid text face for body copy. On dark backgrounds or with ample size and spacing, the contours remain clean and legible.
The overall tone is modern and precise, with a quiet, technical character. Its hollow construction gives it an airy, schematic feel that reads as contemporary and slightly futuristic without becoming ornamental. The restrained forms keep it neutral and utilitarian, making it feel more like a design system element than a display novelty.
The font appears designed to provide a clean, contemporary outline voice for modern graphic systems. Its consistent contour weight and geometric construction suggest an intention to deliver a lightweight, architectural look that can layer over imagery or sit comfortably in spacious layouts without overwhelming other elements.
Because the design is built from outlines rather than filled strokes, perceived weight depends strongly on background contrast and size: larger settings keep the contours distinct, while small sizes can lose presence as the inner spaces dominate. Numerals match the same geometric logic, with open, rounded forms that maintain a consistent contour width.
