A slanted sans with clean, gently tapered strokes and subtly modulated curves that keep the rhythm lively without feeling calligraphic. Uppercase forms are wide and open, with generous interior space and smooth, elliptical bowls; diagonals and joins stay crisp and controlled. The lowercase shows a two-storey “a,” single-storey “g,” and an overall upright construction that’s simply sheared into an oblique, producing consistent forward motion. Numerals are similarly open and even, with clear shapes and a slightly oval “0.”
Well-suited to headlines, subheads, and branding systems that need a modern italic with strong momentum. It can also work for editorial callouts, captions, and interface emphasis where a clean oblique is preferred over a decorative italic.
The overall tone is contemporary and efficient, with a brisk, energetic slant that reads as active and forward-looking. It feels polished and pragmatic rather than playful, lending a confident, editorial voice to headlines and short passages.
The design appears intended to provide a straightforward, contemporary italic companion with a clear, readable skeleton and a purposeful forward slant. It aims for a neutral, versatile voice that adds motion and emphasis while staying clean and restrained.
The italic angle is pronounced enough to add emphasis while maintaining clear letterforms and steady spacing. Open apertures and restrained stroke variation help preserve clarity at typical text and UI sizes, while the wider set gives a spacious, airy color on the line.
