A slanted sans with monoline strokes and softly rounded terminals. Letterforms are built from smooth, elliptical curves with open apertures and straightforward construction, giving the text a clear left-to-right flow. Proportions feel balanced and moderately tall, with generous counters and spacing that keep lines from looking dense. Numerals follow the same restrained, curved construction and integrate cleanly with the lowercase rhythm.
Works well for UI copy, dashboards, and product surfaces where a clean slanted sans can add emphasis while staying legible. It also fits contemporary editorial layouts, presentations, and understated branding systems that need a modern voice without high stylistic overhead.
The overall tone is modern and matter-of-fact, with a calm, contemporary slant that suggests motion without feeling aggressive. It reads as practical and polished, suited to interfaces and informational typography where clarity matters more than personality.
The design appears intended as a versatile italicized companion for general-purpose typography, prioritizing clarity, consistent rhythm, and a contemporary neutral tone across letters and numerals.
The slant is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, and the forms avoid decorative quirks in favor of predictable geometry. Rounded shapes like C, G, O, and e maintain a smooth, continuous stroke, while diagonals (V, W, X, y) keep a crisp, streamlined feel.
