A slanted sans with open, rounded construction and gently tapered terminals. Curves are smooth and broadly elliptical, while straight strokes stay clean and restrained, producing an even, contemporary rhythm. Uppercase forms read simple and geometric with generous counters; the lowercase is similarly open, with a clear single-storey “a” and “g” and a softly curved “f”. Numerals follow the same rounded logic, with smooth bowls and unobtrusive joins that keep the overall texture light and uncluttered.
Well-suited to editorial layouts, magazines, and brand systems that want a clean, contemporary italic with good flow in paragraphs. It also works for packaging, posters, and short headlines where a refined, energetic slant can add motion while keeping a tidy, readable texture.
The tone is modern and approachable, combining a streamlined, contemporary voice with a mild humanist warmth. Its forward-leaning stance adds energy without becoming aggressive, making it feel polished, calm, and quietly confident.
The design appears intended as a versatile italic companion with a modern, rounded sans voice—prioritizing clarity, smooth rhythm, and an approachable tone for both display moments and continuous text.
Spacing appears comfortably open in text, giving long lines an airy color. The italic angle is consistent across letters and figures, helping mixed-case and numerals feel cohesive in running copy.
