A very light, monoline sans with broadly circular bowls and smooth, evenly drawn curves. Strokes stay consistently thin with gentle, rounded joins and terminals that read as softly cut rather than sharp. The geometry leans toward simple circles and ellipses in letters like O, C, and G, while diagonals (A, V, W, X) are crisp and straight, creating a clean rhythm. Counters are generous and apertures are open, giving the face an uncluttered, spacious texture in text; numerals follow the same restrained, rounded construction.
Works best for large-size settings such as headlines, brand wordmarks, and editorial display where the thin strokes and spacious counters can shine. It can also suit clean UI or packaging accents when used at comfortable sizes with ample tracking and strong contrast against the background.
The overall tone is quiet and contemporary, with a polished, understated elegance. Its light touch and open shapes feel calm, airy, and premium, leaning more toward editorial refinement than bold utility.
Likely designed to deliver a sleek, modern sans built on geometric principles, prioritizing clarity and visual lightness. The consistent stroke weight and rounded forms suggest an intention toward a refined display voice that remains legible through open counters and simple, disciplined letter shapes.
The lowercase shows a single-storey “a” and “g”, reinforcing the geometric, simplified construction. Ascenders are tall and slender, and punctuation such as the dot on “i/j” appears compact and precise, supporting a crisp, minimal reading experience.
