A slanted sans with condensed proportions and a compact rhythm. Strokes are even and low-contrast, with smooth, rounded curves and clean joins that keep counters open despite the narrow set. Terminals are largely straight-cut and functional, and the overall geometry leans toward simple elliptical bowls and tight apertures. Numerals follow the same restrained, compact construction, reading clearly with consistent stroke behavior across curves and diagonals.
Works well where space is limited and a clear, modern voice is needed—such as interfaces, dashboards, labeling, and compact headings. The consistent stroke weight and open counters support readable short-to-medium text, and the slant can add emphasis for subheads, callouts, and informational graphics.
The tone is contemporary and no-nonsense, with a brisk, forward-leaning energy. It feels practical and engineered rather than expressive, giving text a sense of motion while staying controlled and legible. The overall impression is neutral and professional, suited to straightforward communication.
Likely designed to provide a space-efficient italic sans that maintains clarity and consistency across letters and numerals. The emphasis appears to be on straightforward construction, steady texture in running text, and a contemporary, utilitarian look that can serve both display accents and functional typography.
The italic angle is consistent across the set, and the condensed width creates a dense, space-saving texture. Round letters keep a smooth silhouette, while diagonals (like in A, V, W, X, Y) add a sharp, efficient cadence. Overall spacing appears tuned for continuous reading, producing a tidy, uniform color in paragraphs.
