A delicate, monoline sans with a geometric backbone and generous white space. Strokes stay consistently thin with smooth curves and crisp terminals, giving letters a clean, drawn-with-a-pen precision rather than a heavy printed texture. Proportions skew tall and high-waisted: capitals feel elongated, and the lowercase is notably small relative to the ascenders, producing a pronounced vertical rhythm. Round letters are near-circular with open counters, while diagonals in forms like K, R, V, W, and X are sharp and taut, reinforcing a sleek, contemporary silhouette.
Best suited for display sizes where its thin strokes and tall proportions can shine: logotypes, mastheads, luxury packaging, fashion/editorial headlines, and large-format posters. It can also work for short pull quotes or interface labels when set with ample size and spacing, but it’s primarily a statement face rather than a dense text workhorse.
The overall tone is poised and fashion-forward, conveying quiet sophistication and restraint. Its light touch and spacious forms feel airy and editorial, suggesting premium branding and modern minimalism rather than utilitarian neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, premium sans voice through thin strokes, high-waisted proportions, and restrained geometric construction, with a few signature gestures to keep it recognizable in branding contexts.
The design leans on simple, confident geometry, with distinctive swashes and subtle calligraphic flicks showing up in a few capitals (notably the Q and R) and in the ampersand-like forms seen in the sample text. Numerals keep the same thin, refined presence and read as elegant display figures, with open, rounded shapes and clean joins.
