A monoline sans with an extremely fine stroke and a consistent rightward slant. Letterforms are built from smooth circular and elliptical bowls paired with crisp, angled terminals, producing a clean geometric rhythm. Counters are open and generous, curves are continuous and controlled, and joins stay understated, keeping the texture light and spacious. The uppercase shows simplified construction with rounded C/G/O forms and angular diagonals in A/V/W/X, while the lowercase maintains a streamlined, single-storey feel with compact details and minimal modulation.
Best suited to display applications such as headlines, posters, branding marks, and packaging where its thin lines and geometric curves can be appreciated. It can also work for short editorial callouts or captions in spacious layouts, especially when a light, modern voice is desired.
The overall tone is airy and modern, with a delicate, high-tech polish. Its thin, slanted presence reads as refined and elegant rather than assertive, suggesting sophistication and lightness. The combination of round geometry and sharp terminals gives it a contemporary, slightly futuristic character.
The design appears intended to deliver a minimalist, contemporary sans that emphasizes elegance through fine monoline strokes, rounded geometry, and a consistent italic slant. It prioritizes visual lightness and a sleek silhouette for high-end, design-forward typography.
The digit set matches the same slender, geometric logic, with rounded forms in 0/6/8/9 and crisp angles in 1/4/7. The very fine strokes and open shapes create a bright page color in text, but the design’s subtle detailing is most apparent at larger sizes where curves and terminals remain legible.
