A delicate monoline sans with rounded, softly finished terminals and a calm, even rhythm. Curves are built from clean circular and elliptical forms, while straight strokes remain slender and consistent, giving the design a light, floating presence. Counters are generally open and generous, and the short x-height is balanced by slightly extended ascenders and descenders that add elegance in text. Proportions lean variable across glyphs, with round letters reading wide and verticals staying narrow, creating a natural, unforced texture.
Best suited to larger sizes where its thin strokes and rounded details can be appreciated—editorial headlines, minimalist branding, packaging, and refined poster typography. It can also work for UI labels or navigational text in spacious layouts, especially on high-contrast backgrounds where the light stroke weight remains crisp.
The overall tone is understated and contemporary, with an airy sophistication. Its gentle rounding and thin strokes feel polite and approachable rather than stark, lending a quiet, design-forward character suitable for minimalist aesthetics.
The design appears intended to deliver a clean geometric sans voice with a softer edge, prioritizing elegance and openness over assertive presence. It aims for a contemporary, lightweight texture that complements minimalist layouts and modern visual identities.
The uppercase shows simple geometric construction (notably round C/G/O and a clean, straightforward E/F/T), while the lowercase keeps a soft, readable flow with open apertures and smooth joins. Numerals follow the same light, rounded logic, emphasizing clarity over boldness.
