A slanted, sans italic with gently rounded construction and a crisp, even rhythm. Strokes are smooth and clean, with subtly tapered joins and open apertures that keep forms clear in running text. The lowercase shows a readable, contemporary skeleton with a single-storey “a” and “g”, a modestly extended “f”, and softly curved bowls; capitals are restrained and slightly narrower in feel, maintaining an airy texture. Figures are proportional and understated, with the “1” and “7” rendered as simple, streamlined forms and rounded “0/8/9” that match the type’s oval logic.
Well suited to editorial design, magazine typography, and brand systems that need a contemporary italic voice for emphasis, pull quotes, or refined headlines. The open shapes and clean rhythm also make it a practical choice for interface labels, short UI copy, and captions where an italic needs to stay legible.
The overall tone is modern and editorial, with a polished, understated elegance rather than overt personality. Its italic slant reads as lively and fluent, suggesting motion and sophistication without becoming decorative or calligraphic.
The design appears intended as a versatile, contemporary italic sans for clear reading and elegant emphasis. It balances smooth, rounded forms with disciplined proportions to deliver a polished tone that works across both display and text-oriented applications.
Curves lean toward oval geometry and the spacing feels open, giving paragraphs a light, breathable color. The slant is consistent across cases, helping emphasis and headings feel cohesive while preserving clarity at text sizes.
