A clean, oblique sans with monoline strokes and rounded curve transitions. Letterforms are built from smooth circular and elliptical geometry, with open apertures and generous counters that keep shapes clear at smaller sizes. The italic slant is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, and the overall rhythm feels steady and uncluttered, with slightly condensed joins and tidy terminals.
Well suited for UI copy, product interfaces, and dashboards where clarity and a compact, steady rhythm matter. It also works for editorial subheads, captions, and brand systems that want a modern italic voice without calligraphic flair.
The tone is modern and matter-of-fact—more functional than expressive. Its slanted stance adds a sense of motion and contemporary energy while staying restrained and professional, making it feel at home in interface and editorial settings.
The design appears intended as a pragmatic italic companion for everyday typography—prioritizing legibility, consistency, and a contemporary sans aesthetic. Its geometry and open forms suggest an emphasis on clarity across a wide range of sizes and contexts.
Capitals show simple, engineered construction (notably in E/F/T) while round letters (O/Q/C/G) stay smooth and even. The numerals are straightforward and legible, with clear differentiation and minimal ornamentation, supporting data-heavy or UI-oriented typography.
