A slanted sans with smooth, rounded curves and gently tapered stroke endings. Letterforms are built from clean elliptical shapes with open apertures and generous counters, producing an even, breathable texture in text. Proportions feel balanced with straightforward construction in capitals and a single-storey lowercase “a” that leans into a more informal, humanist rhythm. Numerals follow the same soft geometry, with clear, readable shapes and consistent spacing.
Well-suited to interface typography, product branding, and general-purpose editorial layouts where an unobtrusive slanted voice is needed. It can work effectively for short headlines, captions, and callouts, and remains comfortable for paragraph settings when a subtle sense of motion is desired.
The overall tone is contemporary and approachable, with a calm, polished feel rather than anything loud or dramatic. Its slant adds motion and emphasis while keeping a restrained, professional character.
Likely designed to provide a versatile italic companion for a contemporary sans system: neutral enough for everyday communication, but with softened geometry and open forms that keep it friendly and readable.
The italic angle is steady across caps, lowercase, and figures, helping lines of text read smoothly without looking cursive. Diagonals (such as in K, V, W, X, and Y) appear crisp against the otherwise rounded skeleton, giving the design a tidy, well-engineered finish.
