A very light, italic sans with a smooth, slightly calligraphic construction and gently modulated curves. Strokes are fine and crisp with clean terminals, and the italics lean reads consistent across caps and lowercase. Proportions are open and spacious, with rounded bowls and ample counters that keep the texture light on the page; curves dominate, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) stay slender and taut. Numerals match the letterforms’ delicacy and keep a simple, uncluttered silhouette suited to continuous reading.
Well suited to editorial typography, fashion and lifestyle layouts, and brand wordmarks that benefit from a light, refined italic voice. It can work effectively for pull quotes, headlines, and short-to-medium passages where an airy, upscale texture is desired.
The overall tone is polished and understated, conveying a quiet sophistication rather than bold personality. Its light slant and restrained detailing give it a contemporary editorial feel with a hint of handwritten ease, making it feel cultured and calm.
The design appears intended to provide a sleek italic sans that feels modern and refined, balancing geometric roundness with a human, slightly calligraphic rhythm for elegant display and editorial applications.
In text, the spacing and open counters produce a bright, breathable color, and the fine strokes emphasize elegance over robustness. The italic angle is noticeable but not extreme, supporting emphasis and forward motion without becoming script-like.
