A delicate hairline sans with crisp geometry and a pronounced contrast between ultra-thin curves and slightly more assertive verticals. Round letters are drawn with near-circular bowls and smooth, continuous arcs, while straight strokes stay clean and unbracketed. Terminals are mostly sharp and tapered, giving diagonals (V, W, X, Y) a precise, knife-edge finish. Spacing reads open and controlled, and the overall rhythm is light and measured, with simplified forms and minimal modulation.
Best suited to display settings such as magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, premium packaging, and large-format posters where the fine strokes can remain crisp. It also works well for pull quotes, invitations, and refined UI/hero text when rendered at sufficiently large sizes and with comfortable tracking.
The tone is poised and high-end, balancing austerity with a subtle decorative edge from its razor-thin strokes. It feels modern and editorial—cool, quiet, and polished rather than friendly or casual. The airy construction and restrained detailing lend a boutique, gallery-like sophistication.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, high-fashion sans that reads as minimal yet upscale, using hairline construction, geometric bowls, and sharpened terminals to achieve a refined display voice.
Distinctive moments include a single-storey “a” with a straight stem, a looped, calligraphic “g,” and a “Q” that takes a long, sweeping tail for added elegance. Numerals follow the same hairline logic, with rounded counters and gentle curves that keep the set consistent in texture. In text, the light strokes create a shimmering line that benefits from generous size and ample white space.
