A monoline sans with a crisp, geometric construction and softly rounded curves. Strokes stay even and delicate, with open counters and a light visual footprint that keeps paragraphs feeling airy. Round letters lean toward near-circular bowls (O, C, Q), while straight-sided forms (E, F, L, T) keep a tidy, architectural feel. Spacing reads generous and even, and the overall rhythm is calm and regular, with simple terminals and minimal modulation.
Works well for modern headlines, brand wordmarks, and editorial layouts where a light, spacious texture is desirable. It can also suit UI labels and captions in clean interfaces, especially when paired with ample size and contrast to preserve legibility.
The tone is restrained and contemporary, conveying clarity and polish rather than personality-driven expressiveness. Its thin, open shapes feel elegant and unobtrusive, giving text a quiet, refined presence suited to minimalist design systems.
The design appears intended to deliver a minimalist, geometry-led sans for contemporary typography, prioritizing cleanliness, openness, and a polished, lightweight presence in both display settings and carefully spaced text.
Distinctive details include a single-storey “a” and “g”, a straightforward, clean “Q” tail, and numerals that maintain the same light, linear logic as the letters. The thin strokes and open forms emphasize refinement, while the consistent geometry helps maintain a cohesive texture in continuous text.
