A slanted sans with rounded construction and smooth, continuous curves. Strokes stay even and calm, with soft, gently tapered terminals and open apertures that keep forms readable. Proportions feel moderately compact in the caps with roomy interior space, while the lowercase maintains a steady rhythm and a straightforward, single-storey feel where applicable. Overall spacing looks comfortable and the italic angle reads as a true design choice rather than a simple mechanical slant.
Works well for UI and app typography where a gentle italic can signal emphasis without looking heavy. It also suits branding, packaging, and editorial pull quotes where a modern, friendly tone is needed, and can scale to posters and headlines thanks to its clean curves and open forms.
The tone is contemporary and friendly, pairing a clean skeleton with a relaxed italic movement. It feels informal without becoming playful, giving text a conversational, approachable voice.
Likely designed as an approachable italic companion for general-purpose sans typography, prioritizing clarity and smooth rhythm while adding a lively forward motion. The forms suggest an intent to feel modern and human, balancing neutrality with a touch of personality.
Round letters (like O/C/G/Q) show smooth, slightly elliptical bowls, and diagonals (V/W/X/Y) are clean and lightly sprung, avoiding sharp aggression. Numerals are simple and legible, matching the soft, rounded treatment of the letters.
