This typeface is a slanted, monoline sans with smooth, rounded curves and gently tapered joins. Letterforms keep open apertures and simplified structures, with a double-storey “a” and compact, rounded bowls. Uppercase shapes are straightforward and geometric-leaning, while lowercase forms show a slightly humanist rhythm through subtle modulation in terminals and stroke endings. Figures are plain and readable, with simple construction and consistent spacing that supports continuous text.
It works well for interface copy, captions, and data-driven graphics where a slanted sans can add distinction while staying legible. The steady rhythm and open counters also suit editorial sidebars and modern branding systems that need a restrained italic voice for emphasis or secondary typography.
The overall tone feels contemporary and matter-of-fact, with a calm, utilitarian clarity. Its oblique stance adds motion and emphasis without becoming expressive or decorative, keeping the voice professional and neutral.
The design appears intended as a practical italic companion for contemporary sans typography, prioritizing clarity and consistency across text sizes. Its forms aim for unobtrusive readability with just enough dynamism from the slant to signal emphasis in running text.
The slant is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, and curved letters (C, G, S) maintain smooth, even arcs. Terminals tend toward clean, angled cuts rather than pronounced hooks, which helps maintain a tidy, engineered appearance in paragraphs.
