A monoline geometric sans with extremely fine strokes and generous spacing that gives each character a delicate, almost wireframe presence. Curves are drawn from clean circular/elliptical arcs, while straights remain crisp and unmodulated, producing a consistent, low-friction rhythm across the alphabet. Many joins and terminals resolve into rounded corners or softly squared ends, and several forms use open or segmented strokes (notably in C/G/S-like shapes), reinforcing a constructed, diagrammatic feel. Proportions lean tall and clean with a prominent x-height and simplified counters that stay open at small-to-medium sizes despite the hairline weight.
Best suited to display roles where its hairline geometry can be appreciated: wordmarks, fashion/beauty branding, posters, and editorial headings. It can also work as a UI accent font for labels or navigation when used at comfortable sizes and with adequate contrast, rather than as dense body text.
The overall tone is modern and understated, balancing a refined, gallery-like calm with a slightly sci‑fi/technical edge. Its light touch reads elegant and precise rather than friendly or emphatic, making it feel premium, minimalist, and contemporary.
The design appears intended to deliver a minimalist geometric voice with a refined, high-tech sensibility—prioritizing clean construction, open forms, and a light, architectural presence for modern display typography.
The sample text shows a distinctive single-storey construction for several lowercase forms and a consistent preference for smooth, continuous curves over calligraphic modulation. The numerals and uppercase share the same geometric logic, keeping the system cohesive and neutral, though the very thin strokes suggest it will benefit from sufficient size, contrast, or spacing in application.
