A slanted, sans-serif design with smooth, rounded construction and gently tapered terminals. Strokes show moderate modulation that reads like a subtle calligraphic influence rather than rigid geometric uniformity. Counters are open and spacious, with soft curves in bowls and shoulders that keep the texture even and legible. Uppercase forms are straightforward and compact, while lowercase letters are more fluid, with single-storey shapes where expected and simple, uncluttered joins that support fast reading in continuous text.
Well-suited to editorial layouts, branding, and advertising where a modern italic voice is needed without resorting to a script. It performs especially well in headlines, pull quotes, and short-to-medium blocks of text that benefit from a lively, slanted cadence. The clear shapes and open counters also make it a practical choice for UI labels and product or marketing copy where emphasis is desired.
The overall tone feels brisk and contemporary, with an active, forward-leaning rhythm that suggests motion. Its clean curves and open apertures keep it friendly and accessible, while the oblique stance adds a sporty, editorial edge.
Likely designed to provide a versatile italic sans that balances clarity with a sense of motion. The rounded forms and moderate modulation aim to keep text smooth and readable while adding personality for emphasis and display use.
The slant is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, producing a coherent line of text without feeling overly decorative. Numerals match the letterforms’ rounded logic and maintain clear differentiation, contributing to a steady, readable texture in mixed alphanumeric settings.
