A delicate, monoline sans with a consistent rightward slant and generously open counters. Curves are built from smooth, near-circular forms, while stems stay slim and clean, producing an even, understated rhythm. Terminals are softly finished rather than sharply cut, and proportions feel slightly condensed in the curves but balanced by tall lowercase forms and clear ascenders/descenders. Numerals and capitals follow the same light, rounded construction, keeping the overall texture uniform and uncluttered in running text.
Well-suited to modern branding systems, lifestyle or tech editorial layouts, and interface typography where a light, refined voice is desired. It can work nicely for captions, short paragraphs, and product or packaging copy, especially when paired with generous line spacing and solid contrast against the background.
The font reads as quiet and contemporary, with an elegant, understated presence. Its gentle slant and rounded geometry add a friendly, approachable tone without becoming playful, making it feel polished and relaxed.
Designed to provide a sleek, contemporary sans option with an italic-leaning posture and soft, rounded construction, prioritizing a smooth reading rhythm and a light, elegant typographic color.
Distinctive shapes include a single-storey lowercase “a” and “g,” plus a looped “j” with a rounded descender, all reinforcing a humanist, handwritten-adjacent character while remaining firmly sans. The overall spacing appears comfortable, helping maintain clarity despite the very fine strokes.
