A very thin, monoline sans with clean, open counters and a calm, even rhythm. Curves are smooth and close to circular in letters like O and C, while straight strokes stay crisp and unbracketed. Terminals are mostly simple and blunt, with occasional subtle calligraphic softness where strokes transition into curves (notably in S and the lowercase g). Uppercase forms are restrained and slightly condensed, and the numerals follow the same light, drawn-line logic with generous interior space.
Best suited to display settings where its hairline strokes can stay crisp—headlines, subheads, posters, and brand marks that aim for a light, premium feel. It can also work for short editorial pull quotes or large-format packaging copy, but benefits from ample size and contrast against the background.
The overall tone is airy and understated, leaning refined rather than utilitarian. Its light touch and wide open shapes feel contemporary and elegant, with a quiet editorial sophistication.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, minimal voice with just enough distinctive glyph detailing to feel bespoke. It prioritizes clarity and elegance through open geometry and restrained, consistent stroke behavior.
The sample text shows consistent spacing and a gentle, low-ink presence that emphasizes whitespace. Distinctive details include a looping, two-storey style lowercase g and a delicate, slightly stylized Q tail, which add character without breaking the minimalist system.
