A delicate, monoline sans with generous vertical proportions and a restrained, geometric construction. Strokes stay consistently thin with smooth circular bowls and softly rounded terminals, creating a calm, even rhythm across words. Counters are open and spacious, and the overall spacing feels measured, giving the forms room to breathe while maintaining a tidy, modern silhouette.
Best suited to display settings where its fine strokes and spacious forms can remain crisp—magazine headlines, fashion and lifestyle branding, lookbooks, packaging, and high-end web typography. It can work for short text blocks and captions when set with comfortable size and line spacing, but it will shine most in larger sizes and airy layouts.
The overall tone is quiet and refined, leaning toward a modern editorial elegance rather than a bold utilitarian feel. Its light presence reads airy and sophisticated, suggesting premium, minimalist design contexts.
Designed to deliver a modern, premium sans voice with minimal ornament and a focus on proportion, clarity, and a polished geometric feel. The intent appears to prioritize elegance and visual lightness for contemporary identity and editorial applications.
Round letters (like O and C) are drawn with clean, near-elliptical curves, while diagonals in letters such as V, W, and X remain crisp and uncluttered. The numerals follow the same thin, pared-back logic, keeping the set visually consistent in mixed text.
