This is a monoline geometric sans with an extended, horizontally oriented stance and generous sidebearings. Strokes stay consistently thin and even, with rounded bowls and smooth elliptical curves in letters like C, O, and G, contrasted by crisp straight stems and diagonals. Corners are mostly clean and unbracketed, and terminals tend toward simple cut-offs, giving the design a refined, pared-back rhythm. The lowercase mixes single-storey a and g with open, unobtrusive joins, and the figures are similarly clean, with rounded 0/6/8/9 and a simple, linear 1.
Best suited to display applications such as headlines, logotypes, editorial titling, posters, and premium packaging where a light, airy presence is desired. It can also work for interface or wayfinding display text when set large enough to preserve the thin stroke visibility.
The overall tone is sleek and understated, leaning modern and slightly futuristic. Its thin, open forms feel quiet and precise, projecting a sense of lightness and sophistication rather than warmth or heft.
The font appears designed to deliver a contemporary, geometry-led sans voice with a refined, minimal footprint. Its extended proportions and delicate monoline construction suggest an intention to look elegant and technical while staying visually unobtrusive.
Round letters read as wide ovals, while straight-sided forms (E, F, H, N) keep a disciplined, architectural feel. The design’s spacious proportions and delicate strokes favor clarity at larger sizes, where the smooth curves and clean geometry are most apparent.
