A clean oblique sans with a gently rounded, humanist construction. Strokes are smooth and even, with low contrast and rounded terminals that keep curves soft rather than sharp. Proportions read on the wider side, with open bowls and counters that stay clear at text sizes. The italic is a true oblique slant with restrained shaping, giving letters a brisk forward motion while maintaining straightforward geometry. Numerals follow the same even, rounded rhythm, with simple, uncluttered forms.
This face suits interface labels, settings screens, dashboards, and other UI contexts that benefit from a clean oblique sans. It also works well for editorial sidebars, captions, and product marketing where a modern tone and steady text color are desired. The wide, open forms make it a good option for infographics and navigational copy where quick recognition matters.
The overall tone is contemporary and pragmatic: friendly enough for everyday UI and product copy, but still crisp and businesslike. Its oblique angle adds energy and momentum without feeling expressive or calligraphic, keeping the voice neutral and functional.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, readable oblique sans that stays neutral and efficient in longer passages while providing a subtle sense of speed and emphasis. It prioritizes clarity through open counters and rounded, low-contrast drawing, aiming for versatile use across digital and print.
The sample text shows consistent spacing and a steady texture, with open apertures and clear interior space helping readability in continuous lines. Curves stay smooth and circular, while diagonals (like in V/W/X/Y) feel clean and engineered, reinforcing a modern, utilitarian impression.
