A delicate monoline sans with a consistent hairline stroke and a steady rightward slant. Forms are built from smooth, rounded curves and straight segments with soft joins, producing open counters and generous apertures. Proportions feel slightly narrow and tall, with ample sidebearing that keeps text light and breathable. Numerals follow the same linear construction, with clean, simple silhouettes and minimal modulation.
Best suited to large sizes where the hairline stroke can remain crisp—such as fashion and beauty branding, magazine headlines, lookbooks, posters, and premium packaging. It can also work for short subheads or captions in spacious layouts, but benefits from good contrast and careful spacing in longer text.
The overall tone is understated and elegant, leaning toward a modern, fashion-forward feel. Its thin lines and spacious rhythm create a calm, sophisticated voice that reads as precise rather than playful.
The design appears intended to deliver a sleek, modern sans voice with an emphasis on lightness, clarity, and motion. By pairing near-geometric curves with a consistent oblique stance, it aims for an elegant display presence without decorative flourishes.
The slanted construction is cohesive across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, giving lines of text a continuous forward motion. Round letters stay clean and near-geometric, while diagonals and terminals remain sharp and restrained, reinforcing the minimal, editorial character.
