A slanted, monoline sans with rounded construction and gently tapered joins. Curves are smooth and open, with generous apertures and counters that keep forms clear at small sizes. The rhythm is relaxed, with slightly varied character widths and a consistent forward lean that reads as an italic rather than an oblique. Terminals are clean and mostly straight-cut, and the overall texture on a line is even and uncluttered.
Well-suited to interface copy, product UI, and dashboards where a clear italic voice is needed for emphasis. It also works for editorial layouts, short-form marketing, and brand systems that want a clean sans with a more human, informal cadence than a rigid oblique.
The font feels modern and approachable, combining a clean contemporary voice with a casual, conversational slant. Its open shapes and soft curvature give it a friendly tone without becoming playful or decorative.
The design appears intended to provide a highly readable italic sans for everyday typography, prioritizing clarity, open shapes, and a smooth, contemporary texture. Its restrained detailing suggests a focus on utility and tone-of-voice—adding motion and emphasis while staying neutral enough for broad use.
Uppercase forms stay simple and legible, while lowercase letters emphasize readability through open apertures (notably in c, e, s) and a single-storey a. Numerals are straightforward and text-friendly, with a balanced, unobtrusive presence that matches the light visual color of the letters.
