A delicate, hairline-weight sans with a restrained, high-contrast feel created by extremely thin strokes and clean circular geometry. Uppercase forms are tall and spacious with wide internal counters and smooth, near-elliptical bowls (notably in C, G, O, and Q), while diagonals in A, K, V, W, X, and Y stay sharp and precise. The lowercase maintains a simple, single-storey construction for a and g, with gently curved terminals and a consistent, uncluttered rhythm. Numerals are similarly light and streamlined, matching the font’s airy spacing and minimalist stroke behavior.
Best suited for display settings such as headlines, magazine typography, branding systems, and poster work where its thin strokes can remain clear. It can also work for refined logotypes and short pull quotes, especially at larger sizes with ample tracking and line spacing.
The overall tone is poised and contemporary, leaning toward luxury and editorial sophistication. Its extreme lightness and crisp geometry convey a quiet, high-end minimalism suited to fashion-forward and design-led contexts.
The font appears designed to deliver a minimal, geometry-led voice with an emphasis on elegance and lightness. Its consistent, pared-back forms suggest an intention to provide a modern display sans that feels premium without relying on ornament.
The design relies heavily on generous negative space, so letterforms read best when given room to breathe. Curved letters show smooth, continuous drawing, while straight strokes and diagonals keep a measured, architectural cadence across the set.
