A very light, monoline italic sans with rounded curves and softly tapered terminals. Letterforms lean consistently with smooth, continuous strokes and generous interior counters, giving an open, breathable texture in text. Geometry is mostly circular and elliptical, with simplified construction and minimal stroke modulation; curves stay clean while joins remain unobtrusive. Overall spacing feels slightly relaxed, supporting an easy rhythm across mixed case and numerals.
Best suited to short-to-medium text where a light, modern italic voice is desired—interfaces, captions, pull quotes, and editorial subheads. It can also work for gentle branding and packaging systems that benefit from a clean, airy tone, especially when set with ample leading and comfortable tracking.
The tone is understated and contemporary, reading as light-footed and refined without becoming formal. Its slanted stance adds momentum and a mildly conversational feel, while the clean, rounded shapes keep it approachable and calm.
Designed to provide a contemporary italic companion with a minimal, monoline drawing and rounded geometry, prioritizing smooth rhythm and a light touch. The consistent slant and open forms suggest an emphasis on clarity and elegance in understated applications.
Capitals appear streamlined and economical, while lowercase forms emphasize clarity through open apertures and simple bowls. Numerals follow the same light, rounded logic, blending well with text rather than asserting a strong headline presence.
