A slanted sans with smooth, continuous curves and a streamlined, slightly squared-off construction in places. Strokes are even and crisp, with open apertures and rounded joins that keep counters clear. Proportions read a bit expansive overall, with generous letter widths and steady spacing, and the rhythm stays consistent from capitals through lowercase. Numerals follow the same clean, forward-leaning logic, with simple forms and clear differentiation.
It suits user interfaces, product branding, and wayfinding where a modern, quick-moving voice is helpful but readability still matters. The open shapes and even strokes also make it a practical choice for short editorial passages, captions, and marketing copy that benefits from a contemporary slanted sans.
The overall tone feels modern and energetic, with a forward motion that suggests speed and efficiency. It balances a neutral, utilitarian clarity with a subtly sporty attitude, making it feel contemporary without becoming loud or decorative.
The design appears intended to deliver a clean sans for modern communication with built-in momentum. It prioritizes legibility through open counters and consistent stroke behavior while using the slant and broad proportions to create a confident, progressive feel.
The italic slant is built into the design rather than appearing as a mechanical oblique, giving curved letters a natural sweep. Round letters like O/C/e stay smooth and stable, while diagonals (A, V, W, X, Y) emphasize the font’s dynamic direction. The lowercase shows a tidy, readable skeleton with simple, single-storey forms where expected, keeping the texture clean in paragraph settings.
