A slanted sans with smooth, rounded curves and gently tapered strokes that create a quiet sense of motion. The forms are open and legible, with generous apertures, clear bowls, and a consistent, even rhythm across lines of text. Vertical stems lean forward uniformly, and many terminals finish with soft, slightly angled cuts rather than blunt endings, giving the design a polished, contemporary finish. Overall spacing feels comfortable and uncluttered, supporting continuous reading and clean typographic color.
Works well for body text where a subtle italic voice is needed, such as pull quotes, emphasis, captions, and secondary copy. It also suits UI and product typography that benefits from a clean, slanted sans for emphasis states, as well as contemporary branding and presentation layouts where a sleek, readable tone is desired.
The tone is modern and understated—more refined than sporty, with an editorial clarity that feels calm and professional. Its slant adds energy without becoming expressive or decorative, keeping the mood crisp and controlled.
Likely intended as a versatile italic companion for modern sans typography—prioritizing clarity and neutrality while adding a measured forward slant for emphasis and hierarchy. The design balances smooth geometry with readable proportions to stay comfortable in longer passages.
Curves are drawn with a round, geometric-leaning smoothness, but the proportions avoid stiffness, leaning toward a humanist readability. Numerals and capitals maintain the same restrained, forward-leaning cadence as the lowercase, helping mixed content look cohesive.
