A monoline, geometric sans with a strong circular construction and generous use of arcs and near-perfect rounds. Strokes remain consistently thin and even, with smooth curves and crisp terminals that often resolve into clean verticals and horizontals. Several capitals and numerals incorporate distinctive interior dots and small looped joins, creating a decorative, modular rhythm without adding weight. Proportions feel open and airy, with rounded bowls, simplified diagonals, and a slightly display-oriented spacing that emphasizes the delicate linework.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, branding marks, poster titles, and packaging where its thin monoline strokes and decorative dot motifs can be appreciated. It can also work for short UI labels or section headers when set large enough, but its characterful constructions make it more effective for emphasis than for dense, continuous text.
The overall tone is retro-futurist with clear Art Deco echoes: refined, light, and slightly eccentric. The recurring dot motifs and looped strokes add a sense of whimsy and boutique sophistication, making the font feel designed for visual personality rather than neutrality. It reads as sleek and modern at a glance, but with ornamental quirks that give it a playful, crafted character.
The design intent appears to be a clean, geometric sans infused with ornamental cues—using circles, arcs, and interior dot accents to create a signature look. It prioritizes distinctive silhouettes and a refined, airy presence, aiming for a retro-modern aesthetic that stands out in branding and titling contexts.
Circular counters and dot details become key identifiers in reading, especially in letters like O/Q and several capitals where the dot functions as an internal accent. The thin strokes and open forms suggest it will look best when given sufficient size and breathing room, where the delicate details and distinctive constructions can remain clear.
