A very thin, right-leaning sans with a smooth, geometric skeleton and long, continuous curves. Strokes stay consistently light, with gentle swelling through curved joins and tapered-feeling terminals created by the diagonal slant. Counters are open and generous; rounds (C, O, Q, o, e) read as clean ellipses, while diagonals (A, V, W, X, y) are crisp and sharply drawn. The lowercase shows a single-storey a and g with flowing, open bowls, and overall spacing feels relaxed, giving the face a wide, spacious rhythm in text.
Best suited to display contexts where its thin strokes and graceful slant can breathe—magazine headlines, luxury branding, packaging, lookbooks, and large-format posters. It can work for short UI labels or captions when contrast and size are sufficient, but it will be most confident in prominent, spacious typography.
The overall tone is sleek and sophisticated, with a fashion and editorial sensibility. Its lightness and strong italic motion create a sense of speed and finesse, reading as contemporary and premium rather than utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver an elegant, contemporary italic voice with a clean geometric base and minimal detailing. It prioritizes fluid motion, openness, and a refined texture for brand-led and editorial typography.
Letterforms favor smooth continuity over hard stops, which helps headlines feel fluid, but the extremely light strokes and pronounced slant make small sizes and low-contrast settings more delicate. Numerals follow the same airy construction, with rounded forms and understated terminals that keep the texture consistent across mixed text.
