A monoline sans with extremely slender strokes and tight, condensed proportions. Curves are built from softly squared, superelliptical shapes, giving rounds (C, O, Q, e, o, 0) a gently rectilinear feel rather than a purely geometric circle. Terminals are clean and unadorned, with consistent stroke endings and smooth joins that keep the texture even. The lowercase is relatively tall and narrow with simple, open constructions; the numerals follow the same thin, streamlined logic with minimal detailing.
Best suited to large sizes where the thin strokes and condensed forms can remain crisp—display headlines, magazine titling, posters, and refined brand wordmarks. It can also work for short UI labels or packaging copy when set with generous size and spacing, but it is visually optimized for expressive, airy typographic hierarchy rather than dense body text.
The overall tone is quiet and refined, projecting a contemporary, design-forward elegance. Its light footprint and controlled geometry read as understated and precise, with a slightly futuristic, editorial sensibility.
The design appears intended to deliver a sleek, space-efficient display voice with a distinctive superelliptical geometry. It prioritizes elegance and modern minimalism, using narrow proportions and carefully controlled curves to create a consistent, high-end typographic texture.
Because the strokes are so fine and the counters are narrow, the font’s color stays pale on the page and spacing becomes a prominent part of its rhythm. The rounded-rectangle DNA is especially noticeable in the bowls and in the way curves transition into straighter segments, creating a disciplined, architectural softness rather than warmth.
