A delicate monoline sans with rounded, geometric construction and generous internal space. Strokes are consistently thin with smooth curves and crisp joins, giving letters a clean, diagram-like clarity. Proportions feel horizontally generous with open apertures and large counters; round characters read as near-circular, while straights remain clean and evenly weighted. The lowercase shows a notably tall x-height and a simple, unembellished rhythm that keeps text color light and spacious.
Best suited to display sizes where its thin strokes and generous counters can stay crisp—headlines, brand wordmarks, packaging, and poster typography. In editorial layouts it can work well for short passages, pull quotes, and section titles where a light, modern texture is desired.
The overall tone is quiet and refined, leaning modern and understated rather than expressive. Its fine linework and open forms create an airy, contemporary feel that suggests precision and restraint, suitable for clean editorial and design-forward contexts.
The design appears intended to provide a minimalist geometric sans voice with a distinctly light footprint—prioritizing openness, smooth curves, and a calm, contemporary rhythm for design-centric typography.
Curved forms and terminals are handled with a consistently rounded logic, while diagonals stay sharp and uncluttered. Numerals follow the same thin, open construction, maintaining a cohesive, lightweight texture across mixed text and figures.
