A very slender sans with monoline strokes and smooth, open curves. Proportions are tall and condensed, with generous counters and ample interior space that keeps letters from feeling cramped despite the narrow set. Terminals are clean and unadorned, and round forms (C, O, Q, 0) read as carefully drawn ovals rather than perfect circles, reinforcing a controlled, architectural rhythm. The lowercase shows a straightforward, legible construction with a single-storey a and g, compact shoulders, and a consistent baseline presence across the alphabet and numerals.
Works well for editorial headlines and subheads where a condensed, lightweight voice can add sophistication without heaviness. It also suits UI labels, navigation, and product/packaging typography when a minimal, refined look is desired. At display sizes it can deliver a sleek poster and branding presence, especially in clean grids and typographic compositions.
The overall tone is restrained and contemporary, projecting a quiet confidence rather than display drama. Its light touch and narrow stance feel refined and slightly technical, suited to calm, minimalist layouts where whitespace and alignment do the heavy lifting.
The design appears intended to provide a streamlined, space-efficient sans with a light, polished texture and an emphasis on clarity through open counters and consistent stroke logic. It balances geometric roundness with practical letterforms to remain readable in continuous text while maintaining a distinctly slender silhouette.
In the text sample, the thin strokes and tight width create an elegant, high-density texture that stays even across long lines. Larger sizes emphasize the font’s delicate linearity and clean curvature, while smaller sizes may benefit from comfortable tracking to preserve clarity.
