A monoline oblique sans with gently rounded curves and restrained geometry. Letterforms show open apertures and clear internal counters, with smooth joins and minimal stroke modulation. Proportions read slightly expansive, and the slant is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, giving the set a continuous forward rhythm. Terminals are mostly plain and contemporary, and the figures follow the same straightforward, readable construction as the letters.
This font suits interface and product typography where a clean oblique voice is needed without sacrificing legibility. It also works well for contemporary branding, wayfinding, and short editorial passages, especially when a sense of forward movement or emphasis is desired without the formality of a serif.
The overall tone is modern and pragmatic, with a subtle sense of motion from the oblique angle. It feels matter-of-fact and engineered rather than expressive, projecting clarity and efficiency while remaining approachable due to its rounded shapes.
The design appears intended to provide a neutral, contemporary sans with a decisive oblique stance, balancing geometric smoothness with functional, open letterforms for clear reading in everyday applications.
The italic angle is strong enough to be clearly intentional, not just a mild slant, and it keeps spacing and counters relatively open for readability. Numerals appear simple and utilitarian, matching the alphabet’s even, consistent stroke behavior.
