A monoline italic sans with rounded-rectangle (superelliptic) construction and softened terminals throughout. Curves are smooth and taut, with a consistent stroke weight and gently squared bowls that keep round letters crisp rather than perfectly circular. Proportions feel slightly narrow in places with open counters and generous internal space, supporting a light, breathing texture in text. The italic is driven more by a steady slant and subtle entry/exit shaping than by calligraphic modulation, keeping the rhythm even and contemporary.
Well-suited to interface copy, product UI, and brand systems that want a light, contemporary feel without sharpness. It also works for presentation decks, short editorial passages, and packaging or lifestyle collateral where a soft geometric italic can add motion while remaining legible.
The overall tone is calm, approachable, and modern, with a subtle tech-forward cleanliness. Rounded geometry and open shapes prevent it from feeling clinical, giving it a friendly, lightweight voice that stays understated rather than expressive.
The design appears intended to blend geometric clarity with a friendlier, rounded construction—delivering an italic that reads smoothly in text while projecting a clean, modern identity. The consistent monoline approach and superelliptic curves suggest an emphasis on system-friendly consistency and a polished, contemporary texture.
Capitals favor simple, streamlined structures, while the lowercase shows clear differentiation between similar forms (e.g., the one- and two-storey tendencies are kept minimal and geometric). Numerals follow the same rounded geometry, reading cleanly and consistently alongside text. The slant is noticeable but restrained, maintaining legibility and a smooth line of flow across longer passages.
