A very slender, slanted sans with an airy texture and smooth, rounded construction. Strokes stay close to monolinear with subtly modulated curves, giving the letterforms a polished, delicate presence rather than a geometric rigidity. Counters are open and generous, terminals are clean, and curves are drawn with a consistent, elliptical logic that keeps the rhythm even across lines. The overall proportions feel spacious and lightly extended, with relaxed joins and a flowing, continuous stroke feel in both uppercase and lowercase.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, branding lines, and editorial display where a light, stylish voice is beneficial. It can work for short text in spacious layouts, such as packaging, invitations, or UI hero text, especially when paired with ample tracking and clear contrast against the background.
The tone is contemporary and understated, reading as elegant and lightly expressive without becoming decorative. Its thin, leaning forms suggest speed and sophistication, lending a fashion/editorial quietness that stays approachable and clear.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, minimalist sans with a graceful slant—prioritizing elegance, openness, and smooth curvature for contemporary display typography.
Round characters (like O, Q, and numerals) emphasize smooth, circular geometry, while diagonals and angled strokes keep the texture lively. Numerals match the same light, streamlined voice, supporting mixed text settings where a refined, minimal look is desired.
