A slender, slanted sans with monoline strokes and softly rounded terminals. The letterforms lean gently forward with smooth oval bowls and open apertures that keep counters clear at small sizes. Curves dominate the construction (notably in C, G, O, and lowercase e), while straight strokes stay clean and slightly tapered by perspective rather than contrast. Proportions feel compact, with modest ascenders and a relatively restrained lowercase body, giving the text a light, quick rhythm.
Best suited to short-to-medium text where a light, personable voice is desired—UI labels, captions, product packaging, and editorial sidebars. It also works well for posters and brand accents when you want an airy, modern feel without harsh geometry.
The overall tone is light and informal, with a friendly, handwritten-adjacent energy without becoming script-like. Its soft rounding and forward slant suggest motion and ease, making it feel modern, approachable, and unobtrusive.
The design appears intended to provide a clean sans reading experience with a relaxed, italicized momentum and rounded forms that soften the texture. It aims for clarity through open counters while maintaining a distinctive, casual rhythm for contemporary communication.
Numerals follow the same rounded, monoline logic with simple, open shapes; the 2 and 3 are especially looped and smooth. The lowercase shows a single-storey a and g, reinforcing a casual, contemporary voice. Spacing appears even and the italics-style slant is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures.
