A very thin, monoline sans with rounded-rectangle geometry and gently softened corners throughout. Curves on C, G, O, and the lowercase bowls read as superelliptical rather than purely circular, while straight strokes remain crisp and evenly weighted. Terminals are clean and mostly flat, giving a controlled, engineered feel; joins are smooth with little to no stroke modulation. Proportions are balanced with generous sidebearings and open counters, producing a light, spacious texture in text.
Best suited for display use where its hairline strokes can breathe—headlines, brand wordmarks, packaging, and clean poster typography. It can work for UI or product labeling in larger sizes where its open shapes remain distinct, but it will generally shine most in short to medium text set with ample size and spacing.
The overall tone is restrained and contemporary, with a delicate, refined presence. Its rounded geometry keeps it friendly and approachable, while the hairline weight and disciplined structure suggest precision and a premium, editorial sensibility.
The design appears intended to deliver a minimalist geometric sans with a distinctive rounded-rectangle construction, prioritizing smooth curvature, consistency, and an airy typographic color. Its restrained detailing suggests an aim toward modern, premium applications where subtle geometry is the main character.
Distinctive details include a single-storey lowercase “a,” a simple, open “g,” and rounded, continuous forms in numerals like 0, 8, and 9 that echo the same superelliptical construction. The light strokes and wide spacing emphasize clarity and a quiet visual rhythm, especially in larger sizes.
