A very slender, monolinear sans with tall proportions and generous internal space. Curves are drawn with clean, near-geometric arcs and open apertures, while joins stay sharp and minimal, creating a crisp, linear rhythm. Terminals are mostly flat and unadorned, and the overall spacing feels calm and measured, with a consistent, understated stroke presence across letters and figures.
Best suited to large sizes where the thin strokes and tall silhouettes can remain clear—headlines, posters, brand marks, and editorial display typography. It can work for short UI or caption text only when set large enough and with comfortable contrast against the background.
The overall tone is quiet, elegant, and contemporary—more about restraint than personality. Its thin strokes and tall forms lend a fashion/editorial feel, suggesting sophistication and lightness rather than warmth or ruggedness.
The design appears intended as a minimalist display sans that emphasizes elegance through extreme lightness, tall proportions, and disciplined geometry. It prioritizes a polished, contemporary voice for titles and branding over heavy-duty text robustness.
Round letters like O and C read as smooth and evenly drawn, while diagonals in V/W/X feel taut and precise. Descenders and ascenders are prominent, giving lines a vertical, high-end look; the numerals match the same thin, airy construction and keep a similarly refined presence in running text.
