A crisp, contemporary sans with smooth, round construction and a measured, slightly formal rhythm. Strokes appear slender with clear thick–thin modulation on curves and joins, giving letters a refined, lightly calligraphic sheen while remaining plainly geometric in overall build. Uppercase forms are tall and evenly proportioned with clean terminals; lowercase is straightforward and readable, with open counters and uncluttered joins. Numerals are clear and linear, with simple, traditional shapes and consistent alignment.
Well-suited for brand identities, editorial headlines, and magazine layouts where a clean sans voice is desired but with a more refined, high-end finish. It should also work effectively for posters, packaging, and short text blocks where the subtle modulation can add character without sacrificing legibility.
The font reads as modern and editorial, projecting clarity and restraint rather than playfulness. Its subtle contrast adds a touch of sophistication, making the tone feel polished and composed.
The design appears intended to provide a contemporary sans foundation with added elegance through controlled contrast and carefully smoothed curves, aiming for a versatile face that can move between display and editorial roles.
Curves are drawn smoothly with rounded bowls and controlled joins, and spacing in the samples looks comfortable at text sizes, helping maintain an even color across lines. The overall impression balances geometric simplicity with a slightly dressy finish from the contrast and tapered moments.
