A monolinear italic sans with rounded, ellipse-driven curves and a gentle forward slant. Forms are clean and largely geometric, with smooth joins and minimal modulation, giving an even color on the page. Counters are open and generous, and the spacing feels comfortable rather than tight, supporting clear word shapes in text. Numerals follow the same oblique rhythm and simple construction, matching the lowercase’s soft, contemporary geometry.
Well-suited for interface copy, captions, and editorial sidebars where an italic voice is needed without losing clarity. It can also work for contemporary branding and marketing materials, especially for short blocks of emphasis, pull quotes, and secondary typographic roles alongside an upright companion.
The overall tone is modern and approachable, with the italic angle adding motion and a conversational feel. Its smooth, rounded construction reads friendly and non-technical, making it feel contemporary without becoming flashy.
Designed to provide a clear, contemporary italic sans that emphasizes readability and smooth geometric forms while adding forward momentum for emphasis. The consistent strokes and open shapes suggest an intention to stay versatile across both display sizing and longer text settings.
The italic is drawn as a true oblique style rather than a decorative script, keeping terminals and curves restrained and consistent. The mix of straight segments and broad curves produces a lively rhythm, while maintaining enough neutrality for general-purpose use.
