A very slender, monolinear sans with softly rounded geometry and generous interior space. Curves read as smooth, superellipse-like bowls, while straight stems stay crisp and vertical, producing a clean, minimalist rhythm. Terminals are subtly rounded rather than sharply cut, and the overall spacing feels open, with tall ascenders/descenders and a compact lowercase core that keeps paragraphs light and uncluttered. Numerals follow the same restrained construction, with clear, open forms and minimal detailing.
Best suited to display and editorial settings where light typography can breathe: magazine headlines, fashion/beauty branding, packaging, and refined poster work. It can work for short text passages at comfortable sizes with ample leading, especially in clean layouts and high-contrast reproduction.
The tone is calm and understated, leaning toward contemporary editorial elegance. Its thin strokes and rounded forms create an unobtrusive, premium feel—more poetic and refined than technical or loud.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, minimalist sans with a gentle rounded voice, emphasizing clarity and elegance through slim strokes, controlled geometry, and generous whitespace rather than expressive quirks.
Round letters such as O/C/G and the bowls in B/P/R maintain a consistent, smooth curvature, giving the face a cohesive softness despite its straight-sided structure. The design relies on proportion and whitespace for personality rather than stroke modulation or decorative features.
