A slender, monoline sans with a consistent rightward slant and an overall rounded, geometric construction. Curves are clean and circular, joins are smooth, and terminals are gently softened rather than sharply cut, giving counters a generous, open feel. Proportions lean broad with ample internal space, and the rhythm is even across upper- and lowercase, aided by simple, uncluttered forms and restrained detailing in letters like a, g, and e.
Best suited to display sizes where its delicate stroke and open forms can remain crisp, such as branding wordmarks, headings, and packaging. It can also work for short editorial passages, captions, or interface labels when set with comfortable size and spacing to preserve clarity.
The tone is quiet and contemporary, with a light, elegant presence that reads as polished and unobtrusive. Its minimal shapes and open spacing convey a clean, design-forward character suited to modern interfaces and editorial settings.
The design appears intended to provide a graceful, modern italic voice within a clean sans framework—prioritizing simplicity, spacious counters, and a smooth, geometric flow for contemporary typographic systems.
Uppercase forms stay straightforward and geometric, while the lowercase introduces subtle liveliness through the slant and rounded terminals, keeping texture smooth in text. Numerals follow the same light, curved logic, with a clear, friendly silhouette that matches the alphabet’s softness.
