A slanted sans with smooth, round construction and a consistent oblique angle across capitals, lowercase, and figures. Strokes are clean with modest contrast and mostly rounded terminals, producing a clear, contemporary rhythm. Counters are open and generously shaped, and the lowercase shows tall proportions with compact ascenders and descenders, keeping lines of text tight and even. Figures are straightforward and readable, matching the letterforms’ curved geometry and steady stroke behavior.
Works well for UI labels, dashboards, and digital product typography where a clean sans with a forward-leaning emphasis is desirable. It also suits short headlines, promotional copy, and signage that benefits from clarity at a glance while conveying motion or urgency through the slant.
The overall tone is modern and purposeful, with an energetic forward lean that suggests speed and progress. Its restrained shapes keep it professional and neutral, while the oblique stance adds a subtle sense of motion suited to contemporary interfaces and branding.
Likely designed as a practical oblique companion for contemporary sans typography, emphasizing clean geometry, open readability, and a consistent slanted voice for emphasis in text and display settings.
The italic slant is pronounced enough to read as intentionally oblique rather than merely angled, and it maintains consistent spacing and color in running text. Round letters stay smooth and stable, while diagonals (such as in K, V, W, X, Y) feel crisp and controlled, reinforcing a precise, engineered look.
