A monoline sans with a consistent oblique slant and softly rounded geometry. Strokes stay even and low in contrast, with smooth joins and gently curved terminals that keep the texture calm and continuous. Counters are open and largely circular/elliptical (notably in O, Q, e, and 8), while diagonals in A, V, W, and Y create a crisp rhythm without becoming sharp or angular. Proportions feel balanced with clear, straightforward forms and slightly compact, utilitarian shapes in the figures and lowercase.
Well-suited for UI copy, dashboards, and product surfaces where an italic voice is needed without sacrificing clarity. It also works for contemporary editorial callouts, captions, and corporate communications, and can support clean brand systems that want a friendly, modern slant. At larger sizes it remains crisp for headings, posters, and signage.
The overall tone is modern and approachable, combining a clean, contemporary voice with a subtle sense of motion from the slant. It reads as practical and efficient rather than expressive, making it feel at home in interfaces and contemporary branding. The rounded construction keeps it friendly, while the controlled spacing and steady stroke weight keep it professional.
Designed to deliver a straightforward sans with an italicized, forward-leaning cadence and rounded, modern construction. The intention appears to be dependable readability and a clean contemporary tone, with enough softness in the curves to feel approachable in everyday text settings.
Uppercase forms are simple and legible, and the lowercase shows a clear, uncluttered structure that stays consistent across the set. Numerals are plainly drawn and sturdy, matching the same rounded, monoline construction and maintaining strong readability in running text.
