A clean oblique sans with rounded, largely monolinear strokes and smoothly drawn curves. Proportions are slightly extended with generous internal space, giving counters and bowls an open, airy feel. Joins are crisp and consistent, diagonals are steady, and terminals read as softly rounded rather than sharply cut. Figures and capitals share a coherent rhythm, with simple, uncluttered forms and even spacing that keeps lines of text calm and uniform.
Well-suited to interface and product typography where a clean italic is needed for emphasis, labels, or secondary navigation. It also works for contemporary branding, editorial subheads, and presentation graphics that benefit from a modern, slightly dynamic slant while staying highly readable.
The overall tone is contemporary and straightforward, with an efficient, no-nonsense voice. Its slant adds motion and emphasis without becoming expressive or calligraphic, keeping the mood professional and neutral.
The design appears intended as a practical oblique companion for a modern sans system—prioritizing clarity, even texture, and dependable spacing. The slightly extended proportions and open forms suggest an emphasis on legibility and a crisp, contemporary appearance across a range of sizes.
Round letters (like O/C/G) are drawn with smooth elliptical geometry, while diagonals (A/V/W/X/Y) maintain a stable, engineered feel. The lowercase shows clear differentiation between similar shapes and maintains a consistent italic angle across the set, supporting continuous reading in text settings.
