A tall, slender text face with gently rounded terminals and softly squared curves that give round letters a subtle superelliptical feel. Strokes are light and even, with a calm, consistent rhythm and mostly straight-sided verticals that emphasize a vertical silhouette. Counters are open and uncluttered, and curves (notably in C, G, O, and S) are smooth without sharp joins. The lowercase shows classic, readable forms (two-storey a and g) and minimal ornamentation, while numerals are simple and upright with clear differentiation.
Works well for editorial typography, UI/UX text, and concise labeling where a light, vertical rhythm is desirable. The clean geometry and open counters suit wayfinding, product packaging, and brand systems that need a modern but understated voice, especially in headings and short-to-medium body copy.
The overall tone is modern and composed, with a quiet elegance that feels orderly rather than expressive. Its slim proportions and softened geometry convey a refined, contemporary neutrality suited to restrained branding and information-forward design.
The design appears intended to balance modern geometric clarity with conventional, highly readable text shapes. By combining tall proportions with softened corners and familiar lowercase constructions, it aims for a versatile, refined sans that stays calm in continuous reading while remaining distinctive in display sizes.
Capitals read as clean and architectural, while the lowercase introduces a slightly more editorial flavor through traditional constructions and modest stroke modulation. The rounded finishing details reduce harshness at small sizes and help maintain a friendly, approachable texture in paragraphs.
