A slender, monoline sans with a consistent rightward slant and softly rounded curves. Strokes are hairline-like and clean, with open apertures and generous internal counters that keep letters from feeling cramped. The geometry leans toward rounded, circular forms in O/C/G and smooth, continuous curves in S, while straight strokes stay crisp and lightly tensioned. Lowercase forms are simple and readable, with a single-storey a and g and unobtrusive, clean joins; numerals follow the same restrained, rounded construction.
Well-suited to fashion and lifestyle editorial design, high-end branding, and packaging where a subtle, modern tone is desired. It can also work for display UI or headings where a light, graceful texture is acceptable, and for posters that benefit from a sleek, uncluttered rhythm.
The overall tone is light, calm, and contemporary, with an understated elegance. Its delicate stroke weight and smooth curvature give it a refined, editorial feel rather than an industrial or loud voice.
Likely designed to provide a clean, modern italic voice with a delicate presence and smooth, rounded construction, aiming for elegance and legibility in short to medium-length text settings.
Spacing appears even and on the open side, contributing to a breezy texture in paragraphs. The slant is steady and measured, creating forward motion without turning into a calligraphic look.
