A monoline, right-slanted sans with rounded terminals and smooth, continuous curves. Letterforms lean consistently with a clean, even rhythm, pairing open bowls and apertures with slightly tapered joins for a crisp but soft finish. Uppercase forms are simple and geometric-leaning, while the lowercase introduces more humanist movement, including single-storey shapes and gently looping ascenders/descenders. Numerals follow the same fluid logic, with rounded figures and lightly angled strokes that keep the set cohesive.
Well-suited for branding and identity work that wants a contemporary, personable voice, as well as packaging and promotional design where a lively italic texture adds momentum. It also performs nicely in editorial headlines, pull quotes, and social content where the open shapes and rounded forms maintain clarity while keeping the tone light.
The overall tone feels modern and approachable, balancing a contemporary, streamlined construction with a relaxed cursive-like slant. It reads as friendly and informal without becoming decorative, giving text an upbeat, conversational texture.
Designed to provide a legible, contemporary italic sans with a softer, rounded construction, offering forward motion and friendliness for modern communication. The goal appears to be an everyday workhorse italic that remains clean and geometric-leaning while retaining a subtle handwritten warmth.
The slant is pronounced enough to create forward motion in paragraphs, and the rounded endings help prevent the texture from feeling sharp or technical. Curves stay smooth and consistent across letters and numerals, producing a clean, uncluttered color at display and short-text sizes.
