A slim, monoline sans with geometric construction and softly rounded terminals. Curves are drawn with broad, superellipse-like rounds, giving O/C/G/Q a clean, sculpted feel, while straight strokes stay even and restrained. Proportions emphasize height: capitals are tall and narrow, lowercase has a notably small x-height with prominent ascenders and deep descenders, and spacing feels open and measured. Numerals follow the same refined, linear rhythm, with simple shapes and gentle curvature.
Best suited to headlines, titles, and short passages where its tall, delicate forms can breathe—such as magazine covers, fashion/editorial layouts, branding wordmarks, and refined packaging. It can work for larger-size text settings when generous tracking and line spacing are available, but its very small lowercase body favors display-led typography over dense UI or small print.
The overall tone is quiet and refined, with an airy, contemporary elegance. Its tall proportions and delicate line weight add a slightly whimsical, fashion-forward character, reading more like a display face than a utilitarian workhorse.
The design appears intended to deliver a clean geometric voice with an elongated silhouette and softened corners, balancing minimalism with a bit of personality. Its small lowercase body paired with long extenders suggests a deliberate focus on stylish rhythm and vertical elegance in display contexts.
Distinctive details include a crisp, high-waisted crossbar on A, a compact bowl treatment on B/P/R, and a Q with a subtle tail that stays controlled rather than flamboyant. The lowercase g uses a single-storey form, and the punctuation (notably the dots and colon) appears small and precise, reinforcing the light, minimal texture in running text.
