A very thin, monoline sans with clean, open geometry and softly rounded curves. Strokes stay consistent throughout, with crisp terminals and a restrained, linear rhythm that reads slightly tall in proportion. Counters are roomy and the spacing feels generous, giving the alphabet a light, breathable texture in text. Forms mix simple circular/elliptical bowls with straight stems; diagonals are sharp and uncluttered, and the overall construction stays evenly balanced across capitals, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited for large-size applications where the fine stroke can shine: headlines, subheads, and elegant brand wordmarks. It also works well for fashion, beauty, architecture, and lifestyle layouts, plus premium packaging and poster titling where a light, spacious typographic color is desired.
The typeface conveys a quiet, modern elegance—minimal and unobtrusive, with an airy sophistication. Its delicate stroke and open shapes suggest a premium, editorial tone rather than a loud or playful one, making it feel calm, precise, and contemporary.
The design appears intended to provide a minimalist, highly refined sans voice with a delicate presence and smooth, rounded construction. It prioritizes visual grace and openness over ruggedness, aiming for a modern, upscale feel in display and editorial settings.
Distinctive details include a single-storey “a,” a looped “g,” a “Q” with a diagonal tail, and a “J” with a pronounced curve. Numerals are similarly light and rounded, with the “2” and “3” showing smooth, continuous curves. At smaller sizes the hairline strokes may require sufficient contrast and comfortable point sizes to maintain clarity.
