A clean oblique sans with largely monoline strokes and rounded, geometric construction. Curves are smooth and continuous, with generous internal counters in letters like C, O, and e, and generally open apertures that keep forms readable. Terminals are mostly straight-cut with a slight softness from the overall curvature, and the slant is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures. Uppercase proportions feel broad and steady, while the lowercase maintains a straightforward, contemporary rhythm with single-storey a and g contributing to a simplified, geometric voice.
Well suited to editorial layouts, brand systems, and marketing copy where a modern oblique sans can add emphasis and momentum. It should perform nicely for headlines, pull quotes, short paragraphs, and UI labels that benefit from a clean, contemporary tone.
The overall tone is contemporary and uncluttered, with a light, breezy presence that feels approachable rather than technical. Its oblique stance adds motion and emphasis without becoming expressive or calligraphic, making it feel modern and editorial.
Designed to provide a straightforward, geometric sans voice with an inherent slanted emphasis, aiming for clarity and modernity over stylistic ornament. The simplified lowercase forms suggest an intention to keep the texture even and the shapes immediately recognizable in continuous reading.
Figures follow the same oblique, geometric logic as the letters, with clear shapes and open bowls that read well at display sizes. The sample text shows even spacing and a smooth texture line to line, supporting longer passages despite the forward lean.
