A delicate sans with geometric construction and pronounced hairline strokes. Curves are smooth and near-circular in letters like O/C/G, while many joins and terminals resolve into crisp, straight cuts that heighten the contrast between verticals, horizontals, and arcs. The rhythm is spacious, with generous counters and clear separation between stems, and the overall drawing mixes rigid geometry with occasional soft, sweeping curves (notably in S, J, and the diagonal letters). Numerals follow the same light, high-contrast logic, with simple, open forms and minimal detailing.
Best suited to display settings where its hairline contrast and geometric shapes can be appreciated—brand marks, editorial headlines, posters, and upscale packaging. It can also work for short blurbs or captions when set with ample size and leading, but it reads most confidently in larger, airy compositions.
The tone feels polished and design-led, leaning toward a classic Deco-inspired modernity. Its thin, precise strokes and geometric calm give it a refined, upscale voice, suggesting fashion, galleries, and boutique branding rather than utilitarian text.
The design appears intended to deliver a sleek, contemporary display sans with a nod to Art Deco geometry—prioritizing elegance, negative space, and a high-end feel over neutral, workhorse simplicity.
Several capitals emphasize horizontal bars and circular bowls (E/F/T and B/D/O), creating a strong grid-like cadence, while letters such as A, K, M, and W introduce sharp diagonals that add sparkle without becoming expressive. The lowercase maintains readability through open apertures and simple one-storey constructions, keeping the overall color light and consistent.
