A clean oblique sans with smooth, rounded curves and uniform stroke weight. The letterforms lean consistently to the right, with open apertures and broadly elliptical bowls that keep counters clear. Terminals are mostly straight-cut with gentle rounding, giving a crisp yet softened edge, while joins stay tidy and uncluttered. Capitals feel sturdy and legible; lowercase is compact and functional with simple, single‑storey forms where expected, and lining numerals that read clearly in text and UI-like settings.
Well-suited for interface labels, navigation, and product copy where a clean oblique voice adds emphasis. It also works for branding, short headlines, posters, and signage that benefit from a modern, forward-leaning tone while staying highly legible.
The overall tone is contemporary and straightforward, with the slant adding motion and a sense of momentum. Rounded geometry keeps it approachable rather than technical, making it feel friendly and practical at the same time.
Designed to deliver a versatile, contemporary sans voice with built-in emphasis through a consistent oblique angle. The rounded, low-contrast construction prioritizes clarity and reliability across a range of sizes, aiming for a friendly modern presence rather than a decorative statement.
The rhythm is even and the spacing appears balanced, supporting continuous reading in short-to-medium passages. Distinct shapes in the numerals and key letters help maintain clarity when set at smaller sizes, while the oblique posture gives emphasis without resorting to heavy styling.
