A very light, oblique sans with rounded construction and gently tapered joins. Curves are smooth and open, with generous interior spaces and a calm, even rhythm across upper- and lowercase. Terminals are mostly soft and slightly angled, giving strokes a drawn, humanist feel rather than a rigid geometric one. Proportions stay balanced with a normal x-height, while the slant and subtle width variation keep the texture lively and unforced in running text.
This font suits modern editorial layouts, lifestyle branding, and packaging where a light, refined texture is desirable. It also works well for UI text, captions, and secondary typographic layers that need clarity without visual heaviness, and for posters or display settings where a relaxed oblique voice adds motion and warmth.
The overall tone is approachable and contemporary, with an airy, relaxed voice that feels informal without becoming playful or decorative. Its light touch and rounded shapes read as gentle and inviting, lending a personable cadence to headlines and short passages.
The design appears intended to provide a clean, contemporary sans with a subtle humanist slant—prioritizing openness, softness, and a quiet elegance for readable, modern typography.
Uppercase forms remain simple and restrained, while the lowercase shows the strongest character through its smooth bowls and unobtrusive, calligraphic-influenced stroke behavior. Numerals follow the same light, open style, staying clear and understated for UI-style use where a softer presence is preferred.
