A very light, monolinear sans with crisp terminals and a clean, geometric foundation. Round letters are close to circular, with open counters and generous apertures that keep forms from closing up at text sizes. Vertical stems read straight and even, while curves transition smoothly with only subtle contrast. Uppercase proportions are tall and restrained, and the lowercase shows simple, single-storey forms (notably the a and g) with a compact, unobtrusive ear and a neat, rounded i/j dot. Numerals match the same light, minimal construction, with a clear, open 0 and evenly weighted curves across 8 and 9.
Well suited to editorial layouts, product and brand systems, and interface typography where a light, modern voice is desired. It can work for headlines and display sizes with a sleek, minimalist presence, while remaining readable in short to medium text passages thanks to its open apertures and straightforward letterforms.
The overall tone is understated and contemporary, with a quiet elegance that feels technical without becoming cold. Its light touch and open shapes convey clarity and restraint, lending a refined, editorial mood rather than a loud or decorative one.
Likely designed to provide a clean, contemporary sans with a delicate stroke and geometric clarity, balancing modern minimalism with practical readability in mixed-case text.
Spacing appears comfortable and consistent, and the rhythm stays even across mixed-case sample text. The light weight benefits from ample whitespace and performs best when not overly compressed, preserving the delicate strokes and open interiors.
