A slender, oblique sans with monolinear strokes and tightly set proportions. Curves are smooth and relatively geometric, with open counters and a consistent, disciplined rhythm across the alphabet. Terminals are clean and unadorned, and the overall construction favors compact widths and upright geometry that’s simply slanted, producing a precise, streamlined texture in text.
Works well for compact settings where space efficiency matters, such as UI labeling, charts, tables, and captions. It also suits clean brand systems and editorial subheads where an unobtrusive, modern oblique can add emphasis without heavy stylistic signaling.
The font conveys a modern, pragmatic tone—cool, direct, and slightly formal. Its oblique stance adds forward motion without becoming expressive or calligraphic, giving it an efficient, contemporary voice suited to informational or editorial settings.
The design appears intended as a straightforward, space-conscious oblique sans: neutral enough for everyday communication, yet distinctive through its compact proportions and controlled geometry. It prioritizes clarity, consistency, and a contemporary typographic cadence over decorative personality.
In running text, the narrow letterforms and even stroke weight create a crisp, high-density color that remains orderly at larger sizes. Numerals match the same understated, geometric logic, supporting a cohesive typographic system feel.
