A slanted sans with smooth, rounded construction and gently tapered terminals. Strokes stay even and calm, with an overall airy color and generous interior spaces. Curves are broadly elliptical (notably in O/C/e), while diagonals in letters like A, K, V, W, and X create a crisp, forward rhythm. The lowercase shows a single-storey a and g, an open e, and compact, tidy joins that keep counters clear. Figures are simple and unobtrusive, with rounded bowls and consistent spacing that reads cleanly in continuous text.
Works well for interface labels, dashboards, and general product typography where a slanted style is needed without sacrificing clarity. It also suits editorial pull quotes, presentation decks, and brand systems that want a modern, neutral sans with a bit of forward energy. The open counters and even rhythm support comfortable reading in short to medium passages.
The overall tone is contemporary and straightforward, with a mild friendliness coming from the round forms and open counters. The slant adds motion and emphasis without feeling flashy, making it feel polished and efficient rather than expressive or decorative.
Likely designed as a versatile italic companion or standalone slanted sans that stays legible and restrained. The emphasis appears to be on clean geometry, open shapes, and a smooth reading rhythm suitable for contemporary communication and functional design.
Capitals feel slightly narrower and more streamlined than the lowercase, reinforcing a clean, editorial texture. The letterforms avoid sharp quirks; instead they rely on consistent geometry and soft curves for a stable, predictable voice.
