A clean oblique sans with smooth, round bowls and gently tapered stroke endings. The forms lean consistently with low contrast and largely monoline construction, giving an even, contemporary texture. Counters are open and circular, and the lowercase shows a straightforward, workhorse structure with single-storey a and g. Numerals are simple and slightly slanted, matching the overall forward-leaning rhythm.
Works well for UI and app typography, dashboards, and documentation where a clean oblique emphasis is needed without becoming flashy. It also suits contemporary branding, wayfinding/signage, and editorial subheads or pull quotes that benefit from a slightly energetic, forward-leaning voice.
The overall tone is modern and efficient, with a subtle sense of motion from the oblique angle. It reads as neutral and pragmatic rather than decorative, lending a clear, understated personality suited to contemporary interfaces and communications.
Designed to provide a dependable, modern sans voice with a consistent oblique stance—balancing neutrality, readability, and a sense of speed for everyday typographic systems.
The italic angle is expressed as a true oblique throughout, with upright-like construction carried into the slant rather than calligraphic modulation. Terminals stay crisp and unobtrusive, helping maintain clarity at smaller sizes while keeping a cohesive, streamlined look in longer text.
