A delicate, hairline italic with smooth, rounded construction and generous horizontal proportions. Strokes are extremely thin overall, with subtle modulation visible in curves and joins, producing a crisp, high-fashion contrast without appearing decorative. Letterforms favor open apertures and broad bowls, with long, clean arcs in C/G/S and a softly oval O. The rhythm is spacious, with light color on the page, slightly varied glyph widths, and a consistent rightward slant across capitals, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited to large-size typography such as magazine headlines, lookbooks, luxury branding, and refined campaign graphics where its thin strokes and wide stance can breathe. It can work for short subheads or pull quotes in high-contrast layouts, but will be most effective where reproduction is clean and sizes are not too small.
The tone is poised and understated—more editorial and premium than utilitarian. Its combination of extreme thinness, wide proportions, and sweeping curves conveys sophistication, lightness, and a modern luxury sensibility.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, stylish italic voice with a minimalist sans foundation—prioritizing elegance, spaciousness, and graceful curvature for premium display settings.
Capitals read as sleek and architectural, while the lowercase introduces gentle, humanist softness through rounded terminals and flowing curves. Numerals mirror the same airy construction, with minimalist forms that prioritize elegance over robustness at small sizes.
