A slender monoline sans with a consistent rightward slant and gently rounded terminals. Curves are drawn with smooth, oval geometry, giving letters like C, O, and e a soft, open feel, while straighter strokes in E, F, H, and N stay crisp and uncluttered. Proportions are compact and slightly condensed, with generous interior spaces and clear apertures that keep forms legible despite the light stroke. The lowercase is simple and contemporary, with single-storey a and g and a restrained, even rhythm across text.
Well-suited to fashion-leaning editorial layouts, brand identities that want a light, refined voice, and packaging where a gentle, contemporary italic can add sophistication. It also works for UI labels and short captions when a soft, unobtrusive emphasis is desired, provided adequate size and contrast are used.
The overall tone is light and relaxed, with a contemporary elegance that feels friendly rather than formal. Its italic posture adds motion and a handwritten-adjacent ease, while the clean construction keeps it aligned with modern UI and editorial aesthetics.
Designed to deliver an understated italic sans with a smooth, geometric roundness and a calm reading rhythm. The intent appears to balance modern cleanliness with a human, approachable slant for tasteful emphasis in display and short text settings.
Figures follow the same airy, streamlined construction as the letters, with smooth curves and minimal modulation. Diagonal-heavy capitals (V, W, X, Y) appear sharp yet delicate, reinforcing the font’s brisk, slanted texture in longer lines.
