A monoline sans with a distinctly slender build and generous interior space. Curves are drawn with smooth, rounded-rectangle logic, giving bowls and counters a soft, superelliptical feel rather than perfect circles. Strokes remain even and delicate throughout, with crisp terminals and tight, controlled joins. Proportions are tall and condensed, and the overall rhythm is orderly, with narrow letters and simple, legible shapes that stay consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to display sizes where its fine strokes and narrow proportions can create elegant, space-efficient headlines. It can work well for modern branding, editorial titling, posters, and premium packaging where a minimal, refined voice is desired; extended body text would typically require sufficient size and contrast for comfortable reading.
The tone is restrained and contemporary, with an airy, understated presence. Its thin strokes and tall proportions read as refined and architectural, suggesting clarity, calm, and precision rather than friendliness or exuberance.
The letterforms appear intended to deliver a modern, minimal sans optimized for a sleek vertical footprint, using rounded-rectangle curves to keep geometry smooth and contemporary while maintaining a precise, orderly texture.
The design leans on verticality: straight stems and elongated forms dominate, while rounded corners keep the texture from feeling harsh. Numerals follow the same light, streamlined logic, producing a cohesive set suited to clean typographic systems.
