A slender monoline sans with softly rounded terminals and a gently hand-drawn regularity. Forms are tall and condensed, with generous ascenders and descenders and a relatively small x-height, creating a lot of vertical whitespace in text. Curves are smooth and open (notably in C/G/S and the bowls of B/P/R), while straight strokes remain slightly softened rather than rigidly geometric. Overall rhythm is even but not mechanical, with subtly varied widths and small idiosyncrasies that keep it feeling human.
Works best for display settings where its tall, light voice can breathe—headlines, posters, short brand statements, and packaging copy. It can also suit invitations, quotes, and editorial pullouts where a gentle, minimal personality is desired and text runs aren’t overly dense.
The tone is light, clean, and approachable, balancing a minimalist look with a casual, personal warmth. Its narrow, tall proportions give it an elegant, airy presence, while the rounded finishes prevent it from feeling cold or clinical.
The design appears aimed at providing a simple, modern sans with a subtle handwritten flavor—prioritizing lightness, vertical elegance, and friendly readability over strict geometric uniformity.
In the sample text, the narrow proportions and long extenders emphasize verticality, helping headlines feel tall and spacious. Numerals follow the same slim construction; curved figures like 2, 3, and 8 read smoothly, and 1 is a simple vertical stroke that stays understated. At smaller sizes, the fine strokes and compact counters may benefit from comfortable sizing and spacing to maintain clarity.
