A very slender, monoline sans with a consistent rightward slant and gently rounded construction. Curves are smooth and open, with generous apertures and clear, unforced joins that keep the texture light and breathable. Terminals are mostly softly finished rather than sharply cut, and proportions lean toward tall, clean forms with even spacing that maintains a calm rhythm in text. Figures follow the same lean, with simple, streamlined shapes that stay legible while matching the overall delicacy.
Well suited to editorial settings such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, and short-to-medium text where an elegant slanted voice is desired. It can also support modern branding, packaging, and poster work that benefits from a light, refined presence and a smooth, contemporary rhythm.
The tone feels contemporary and understated, with a polite, cultivated elegance. Its light stroke and continuous flow read as calm and sophisticated rather than loud, giving it an editorial, design-forward character with a touch of warmth.
The design appears intended to deliver a clean, modern italic voice that feels airy and readable, emphasizing smooth geometry, open counters, and a cohesive forward slant for a polished, editorial look.
The slant is steady across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, creating cohesive forward motion. Round letters stay circular and open, while straight-stem letters remain clean and minimal, producing an even, uncluttered color in longer passages.
