A monoline sans with hairline strokes, generous spacing, and broad, open proportions. Curves are built from smooth circular and elliptical geometry, while straight segments stay crisp and unmodulated. Terminals tend to be clean and neutral, with rounded bowls and open apertures giving a light, breathable texture. The overall rhythm is even and restrained, leaning on simple construction and consistent stroke behavior across letters and numerals.
Best suited to large sizes where its hairline strokes and open counters can stay clear—such as headlines, wordmarks, posters, and editorial display settings. It can also work for short UI labels or navigation in spacious layouts, especially on high-contrast backgrounds, but is less ideal for dense small-size text where very thin strokes may diminish.
The tone is clean and understated, projecting a contemporary, high-tech minimalism. Its thin, spacious forms feel refined and delicate, with an airy calm that suggests modern design systems and premium presentation.
The design appears intended to deliver a pared-down geometric sans for contemporary display typography, prioritizing clarity of shape, elegant lightness, and a modern visual signature over warmth or traditional text readability.
Round characters (such as O/C/G and the numerals) emphasize near-circular structure, while angular forms (A/V/W/X/Y) remain sharp without adding decorative flair. The figures appear similarly light and geometric, maintaining the same delicate presence as the letters, which helps keep mixed text consistent.
