A hairline-weight contrasted sans with tall proportions and a noticeably delicate stroke. The design relies on long, continuous curves and slender verticals, with contrast expressed through tapered joins and swelling curves rather than conventional serif structure. Counters are open and rounded, terminals are clean and often sharpened into fine points, and the overall rhythm is light and spacious. Letterforms show a mix of straight, narrow stems and broad arcs, giving the set a subtly variable silhouette across characters.
Best suited to display settings such as fashion mastheads, magazine headlines, brand marks, and upscale packaging where its hairline contrast can be preserved. It can also work for short subheads or pull quotes at generous sizes and with careful color/printing conditions to avoid losing the finest strokes.
The font conveys a refined, couture-like sophistication with a slightly theatrical edge. Its extreme lightness and crisp contrast feel contemporary and editorial, suggesting luxury, restraint, and a curated modern taste.
The design appears intended as a modern, high-contrast display sans that brings elegance and visual drama through hairline strokes, tall geometry, and refined curve work, prioritizing style and atmosphere over utilitarian text robustness.
The thinest strokes become extremely fine in curves and at terminals, creating a shimmering texture in text and a strong emphasis on negative space. Numerals and capitals maintain the same airy, stylized construction, with distinctive curved detailing that reads as decorative while staying structurally sans.
