A clean, oblique sans with monoline strokes and smooth, round-based construction. Letterforms are slightly condensed in feel with generous internal counters and open apertures, keeping shapes legible despite the forward slant. Curves are softly tensioned rather than geometric-perfect, and terminals are plain and tidy, producing a consistent, understated rhythm across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
Works well for UI labels, settings, and navigation where a slanted sans can add emphasis while staying neutral. The open forms and consistent stroke weight suit captions, dashboards, and dense informational layouts, and it can also support contemporary branding that wants a crisp, no-frills typographic tone.
The overall tone is modern and matter-of-fact, with a lightly dynamic slant that adds momentum without becoming expressive or decorative. It reads as practical and contemporary, suited to interfaces and informational settings where clarity and speed matter more than personality.
Likely designed as a functional oblique companion for a neutral sans system, prioritizing clarity, consistency, and a subtle sense of forward motion. The shapes aim for dependable readability across mixed-case text and numerals while maintaining a clean, contemporary silhouette.
Capitals present a straightforward, workmanlike structure, while lowercase maintains a compact, efficient footprint with clear differentiation between similar shapes. Numerals are simple and readable, matching the same restrained, utilitarian voice as the letters.
