A clean, oblique sans with monoline strokes and gently rounded terminals. Letterforms lean consistently to the right, with smooth circular/elliptical bowls and broadly open counters that keep texture light and even in running text. Proportions feel balanced and contemporary: capitals are straightforward and geometric, while lowercase forms stay compact with simple constructions (single-storey-style shapes where expected) and minimal embellishment. Numerals match the same understated, rounded geometry and maintain an even rhythm alongside letters.
Works well for interface copy, dashboards, and product communication where an italic voice is needed as a primary style, as well as editorial callouts, captions, and presentation typography. The open shapes and even stroke weight help maintain clarity in medium-size text and in concise display settings like headers and labels.
The overall tone is modern and matter-of-fact, with a forward-leaning energy that reads as active and pragmatic rather than expressive. Its restrained shapes and consistent slant give it a contemporary, utilitarian feel suited to clear communication.
Designed to provide a straightforward, contemporary sans with a built-in oblique posture for emphasis and momentum while preserving the clarity and neutrality expected of everyday text typography.
The slant is strong enough to signal emphasis without becoming cursive, and spacing appears tuned for smooth flow in paragraphs. Round letters (like O/C/G) and straight-sided forms (like E/F/H) sit comfortably together, producing a uniform, tidy grayscale at text sizes.
