A delicate, line-based sans with very thin, consistent strokes and tall proportions. Curves are drawn with generous, circular geometry, while straights stay crisp and vertical, creating a clean, architectural rhythm. Counters are open and uncluttered, terminals are simple and unembellished, and joins remain calm and controlled, giving the whole set a light, precise silhouette across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to headlines, wordmarks, packaging, and editorial pull quotes where its thin strokes and tall proportions can stay crisp and legible. It also works well for minimalist identity systems and short UI labels when used at adequate sizes and with comfortable spacing.
The overall tone is quiet and contemporary, with a refined, almost sketch-like lightness that feels careful and understated. Its slim presence reads elegant and modern rather than loud, bringing a sense of restraint and clarity to both single words and longer lines of text.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, pared-back sans for display typography—favoring clarity, geometric smoothness, and a refined, lightweight presence over heaviness or decorative detail.
The sample text shows a smooth, even texture at display sizes, with rounded forms (notably in O, Q, 0, and 8) contrasting nicely against the straight-sided letters. The numerals keep the same airy construction as the letters, and the punctuation in the sample maintains the same minimal, linear character.
