A very thin, monoline sans with a consistent rightward slant and softly rounded geometry. Curves are drawn from clean circular/elliptical forms, while straight strokes stay crisp and uninterrupted, creating a smooth, even rhythm. Counters are generous and apertures remain open, helping letters like a, e, and s stay readable despite the light stroke. Capitals are clean and simple with restrained joins; lowercase shows gentle, humanist shaping, with tall ascenders and compact, tidy forms that maintain a refined texture in words.
Best suited to display and large-text applications where its hairline strokes can remain intact—such as fashion and beauty branding, editorial headlines, lookbooks, packaging, and refined identity systems. It also works well for short UI labels or captions in high-resolution contexts where a light, stylish italic voice is desired.
The overall tone is quiet and polished, with an airy, contemporary elegance. Its delicate stroke and steady italic movement suggest sophistication and lightness rather than emphasis or impact.
The font appears designed to deliver a modern, minimal italic sans that feels refined and approachable, prioritizing clean circular construction, openness, and a graceful forward motion for contemporary branding and editorial typography.
The numerals follow the same thin, rounded construction, with a particularly graceful 2 and a compact, looped 8/9 feel. The design keeps spacing and stroke behavior consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, producing a smooth, understated word image at display sizes.
