A monoline, geometric sans with generous spacing and a sleek, airy color. Many forms are constructed from near-circular bowls and straight, simplified stems, with deliberate breaks that act as stencil bridges (notably visible in rounded letters and several numerals). Terminals tend to be clean and unadorned, and the overall rhythm feels measured and consistent, with rounded counters and slightly mechanical curves. Uppercase proportions are tidy and restrained, while the lowercase keeps a straightforward, readable structure with single-storey shapes and minimal modulation.
Best suited to display typography where its crisp geometry and stencil detailing can be appreciated—such as titles, posters, brand marks, packaging, and editorial headlines. It also works well for tech or cultural graphics where a minimal, engineered look is desired.
The overall tone is cool and contemporary, evoking a technical, design-forward sensibility. The consistent stencil interruptions add a subtle industrial or sci‑fi flavor without becoming aggressive, keeping the voice refined and minimalist.
The design appears intended to combine a clean geometric sans foundation with purposeful stencil segmentation, creating a modern display face that feels engineered and contemporary while staying visually light and uncluttered.
The stencil breaks are integrated into the letter structure rather than appearing as decorative cuts, which helps preserve legibility at display sizes. The thin strokes and open spacing emphasize elegance and precision, but the distinctive gaps become the key identity cue in headlines and short phrases.
