A compact, narrow text face with clean stems and subtly sculpted curves. Strokes show gentle modulation and soft, slightly flared terminals that create a calligraphic undertone without becoming overtly serifed. The proportions are high-waisted with a notably small x-height, tall ascenders, and rounded bowls that stay open and readable. Uppercase forms are crisp and upright with restrained curvature, while lowercase introduces more character through a single-storey a, a long-tailed g, and a distinctive, curving t. Numerals follow the same narrow rhythm, with rounded shapes and a lightly tapered feel that keeps lines of text lively rather than purely geometric.
Works well for headlines and subheads where its narrow set and distinctive lowercase can create a strong typographic color. It also suits editorial layouts—magazines, cultural pieces, and packaging—where a refined but characterful voice is beneficial. For branding, it can signal modernity with a subtle handcrafted edge.
The overall tone balances editorial refinement with a touch of eccentricity. It feels modern and cultured, but not sterile—subtle idiosyncrasies in terminals and curves add warmth and personality. The result reads as confident and slightly playful, suitable for designs that want sophistication without strict formality.
Likely designed to offer a clean sans foundation enriched with calligraphic nuance—combining a compact, space-efficient footprint with expressive terminals and bowls. The intent appears to be a versatile display-to-text companion that stands apart from purely geometric or strictly neutral constructions.
Rhythm is driven by tight widths and consistent vertical stress, while small details—like softened joins and lightly flared ends—prevent the texture from looking mechanical. The uppercase has a steadier, more composed voice, and the lowercase provides the expressive counterpoint, especially in letters with tails and hooks.
