A delicate, monoline sans with a consistent rightward slant and tall, slender proportions. Curves are drawn with smooth, oval geometry and generous counters, while joins stay clean and uncluttered. Terminals are softly rounded rather than sharply cut, giving the strokes a gentle finish. Numerals follow the same lean, with simple, open forms and restrained detailing for an even rhythm in text.
Well-suited to interfaces, captions, and secondary typography where a clean, unobtrusive italic voice is needed. It also works for editorial pull quotes, light branding, and presentation typography when a refined, modern slant can add emphasis without heavy contrast or ornament.
The overall tone is light, calm, and contemporary, with an elegant, almost handwritten ease created by the oblique posture. Its restraint and openness read as modern and polished rather than decorative or loud.
Designed to provide a crisp, contemporary italic sans that stays legible through open shapes and steady stroke behavior. The goal appears to be a subtle, elegant emphasis style that remains neutral and usable across a range of informational and brand contexts.
Uppercase forms stay simple and linear, while lowercase shows subtly humanist construction (notably in the single-storey shapes and open bowls), helping maintain a friendly texture despite the sleek proportions. Spacing appears balanced for continuous reading, with a smooth, consistent cadence across mixed-case settings.
