A very slender, monoline sans with a consistent rightward slant and softly rounded terminals. Curves are drawn with smooth, circular geometry (notably in C, O, Q, and the bowls), while straight strokes stay clean and even, producing a crisp, minimal rhythm. Counters are generous and apertures are open, and the lowercase shows simple, uncluttered constructions with single‑storey forms where expected (a and g), plus a gently descending y. Figures are similarly light and rounded, with clear, straightforward shapes and minimal ornament.
Well suited to editorial headlines, brand marks, and premium packaging where a light, modern tone is desired. It can work in short to medium passages when set with sufficient size and spacing, and it performs especially well for display applications that can preserve its fine stroke weight.
The overall tone is quiet and contemporary, with an elegant, airy presence that feels precise rather than expressive. Its lightness and steady slant lend a subtle sophistication suited to understated, design-forward typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a clean, modern italic sans with a delicate, refined texture—prioritizing smooth round forms, open readability, and a minimal, contemporary finish.
Letterspacing appears comfortable and the thin strokes create a delicate texture that benefits from ample size and generous leading. The italic is built as a true slanted style with consistent geometry across caps, lowercase, and numerals, keeping the voice cohesive in continuous text.
