A delicate monoline sans with a consistent, hairline stroke and a pronounced rightward slant. Letterforms lean on clean geometric construction—round bowls, smooth arcs, and straight, lightly angled stems—producing an even, breathable rhythm. Curves are generous and open, terminals are crisp and unadorned, and proportions feel slightly expanded with ample internal space, keeping both uppercase and lowercase calm and uncluttered. Numerals follow the same thin, streamlined logic, with simple shapes and clear apertures.
Best suited to large-size settings where its fine strokes and spacious shapes can read cleanly—such as fashion and beauty branding, editorial headlines, premium packaging, and elegant brand systems. It also works well for short UI or display labels where a light, refined tone is desired, but is less ideal for dense, small-size text blocks due to its very thin stroke presence.
The overall tone is quiet and sophisticated, conveying a light, contemporary elegance rather than emphasis or heft. Its slanted posture adds a sense of motion and finesse, while the minimal stroke presence keeps the voice understated and airy.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, minimal display voice with an elegant slanted stance—prioritizing clarity through open geometry and a light, polished texture suitable for contemporary branding and editorial typography.
Round characters (C, O, Q, e) show smooth, near-circular construction, while diagonal-heavy letters (A, V, W, X, Y) appear taut and precise. The sample text highlights a graceful texture at larger sizes, with the thin strokes and open counters creating a spacious, high-end feel.
