A slanted, monolinear sans with a gently humanist construction and soft, rounded joins. Strokes stay even and clean, with subtle modulation coming mostly from curved terminals and angled cuts rather than strong contrast. Proportions are slightly condensed in places, with generous counters and open apertures that keep forms readable. The lowercase shows a single-storey a and g, a fluid, looped f, and a simple, clean i/j treatment, while numerals are rounded and unobtrusive with smooth curves.
Well-suited to editorial typography such as magazine decks, pull quotes, and feature intros where a refined italic voice is needed. It also works for brand systems and packaging that aim for a clean, modern personality, and for UI accents or short highlights where slanted emphasis should remain legible.
The overall tone is refined and contemporary, combining an editorial polish with an easy, conversational warmth. Its slant adds motion and sophistication without feeling aggressive, giving text a poised, understated energy.
The design appears intended as a contemporary italic companion with a smooth, humanist feel—clean enough for modern systems while retaining a hint of handwritten flow. Its measured slant and open forms suggest a focus on readability and tasteful emphasis rather than dramatic display.
Curves are drawn with a consistent radius and a steady rhythm, and the diagonals (v, w, x, y, z) keep a crisp, linear feel that balances the round letters. Spacing appears even and comfortable in the sample text, supporting continuous reading at moderate sizes.
