A slender, high-contrast sans with a distinctly vertical rhythm and tall proportions. Strokes transition sharply between thick verticals and hairline horizontals, with smooth, rounded joins that keep the forms clean rather than calligraphic. Curves are open and controlled, and many letters show gentle tapering toward terminals, producing crisp, precise silhouettes. The lowercase reads with a modest x-height and generous ascenders/descenders, while figures follow the same contrast pattern for a cohesive texture in mixed settings.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and branding where its contrast and slim build can add refinement and hierarchy. It can work for short text blocks in spacious layouts, particularly in magazines, lookbooks, and premium product or cultural communications where a clean but elevated voice is desired.
The overall tone is polished and editorial, combining modern minimalism with a slightly fashion-forward elegance. Its bright spacing and hairline details give it a premium, poised feel, suitable for designs that want sophistication without ornament.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, minimalist sans voice with pronounced contrast and a tall, condensed stance, offering a more luxurious alternative to neutral grotesks. Its controlled curves and crisp stroke endings suggest an emphasis on display impact and typographic refinement rather than utilitarian body-text neutrality.
At larger sizes, the hairline crossbars and thin horizontals create a light, shimmering texture, while the heavier verticals maintain structure and clarity. The narrow set and tall caps create a compact, column-like presence that can feel authoritative in headlines and display text.
