A clean, oblique sans with monoline strokes and broadly geometric construction. Curves are smooth and round, with open apertures and generous counters that keep forms clear at text sizes. Proportions feel slightly tall, with compact ascenders/descenders relative to the x-height, and overall spacing that reads even and controlled. Terminals are largely plain and cut on an angle, reinforcing the consistent forward slant across both letters and numerals.
Well suited to interface typography, dashboards, and informational design where clarity and a contemporary tone are needed. It can also work for headlines and compact subheads, especially in layouts that benefit from a forward-leaning, active emphasis.
The overall tone is modern and efficient, with a subtle sense of speed from the italic angle. Its restrained forms and steady rhythm make it feel professional and technical rather than expressive or decorative.
Designed to provide a practical, contemporary italic sans for everyday typography, pairing geometric simplicity with legibility in continuous text. The consistent slant and plain, angled terminals suggest an emphasis on clean rhythm and functional readability across sizes.
Round letters like C, O, and Q are close to circular, while diagonals in A, V, W, X, and Y are crisp and symmetrical. The numeral set maintains the same oblique stance and simple shapes, with a straightforward, readable 1 and balanced bowls in 8 and 9.
