A clean oblique sans with monoline strokes and broadly rounded bowls. Curves are smooth and continuous, with open apertures and generous interior counters that keep the forms bright and legible. Terminals are predominantly blunt with subtly softened corners, and the overall geometry leans toward circular and elliptical construction, especially in O/C/G/Q and the numerals. Proportions feel extended horizontally, giving the alphabet a spacious rhythm and a steady, even texture in text.
Works well for UI and product typography where a clear, modern voice is needed, and the oblique angle can emphasize motion or forward direction. Its wide, open forms suit short-to-medium text, navigation, and labels, while also delivering crisp, contemporary headlines and brand accents.
The slanted stance adds motion and a contemporary, energetic tone without becoming aggressive. Rounded construction and open forms keep it approachable and pragmatic, balancing a slightly technical feel with friendly clarity.
Likely designed to provide a contemporary oblique sans that reads cleanly at a range of sizes while projecting speed and modernity. The rounded, low-drama construction suggests an emphasis on neutral usability with a subtly expressive slant for emphasis and personality.
Uppercase forms stay straightforward and geometric, while lowercase shapes remain simple and uncluttered, supporting a smooth reading flow. Numerals follow the same rounded, monoline logic, integrating cleanly with letterforms for interface-style settings and everyday text.
