A slender, monoline sans with tall proportions and gently rounded geometry. Strokes maintain an even weight with soft, slightly tapered or curved terminals that keep shapes from feeling mechanical. Curves are clean and open—particularly in bowls and counters—while verticals dominate the rhythm, giving the alphabet a light, elongated silhouette. The lowercase shows simple, single-story constructions (notably a and g), with modest ascenders/descenders and clear, uncluttered joins.
Best suited for display settings where its slim strokes and tall forms can breathe—headlines, branding wordmarks, packaging, posters, and short UI labels. In longer passages it maintains a pleasant, clean rhythm, but it will be most effective at larger sizes where the delicate weight remains clear.
The overall tone is light and approachable, combining a modern cleanliness with a subtle hand-drawn warmth. Its narrow, airy feel reads calm and understated, while rounded details add a casual, friendly character suitable for gentle, upbeat messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver a clean, contemporary sans with a softer, more personable edge than a strictly geometric system. It prioritizes an elegant, space-saving silhouette and open, rounded forms to keep the texture light and inviting.
Capitals are restrained and geometric with smooth arcs (C, G, O, Q) and minimal embellishment, while diagonals (A, V, W, X, Y) stay crisp without becoming sharp. Numerals are similarly thin and open, leaning toward simple, readable forms rather than rigidly engineered shapes.
