A slanted sans with smooth, rounded construction and an even, low-contrast stroke. Letterforms are built from simple arcs and straight segments with gently tapered joins, producing a clean rhythm and consistent texture. Counters are open and legible, with circular bowls (O, Q, 0) and straightforward diagonals (V, W, X) that read crisp at display sizes. The lowercase shows a utilitarian, single-storey feel in key shapes and a generally upright, uncluttered skeleton despite the oblique angle.
It works well for UI and product typography, short paragraphs, and navigation or labeling where a clean oblique emphasis is needed. The restrained styling and open shapes also suit contemporary editorial pull quotes, presentations, and brand systems that want a modern, neutral voice with a bit of motion.
The overall tone is contemporary and matter-of-fact, with a subtle forward motion from the slant that adds energy without becoming flashy. It feels pragmatic and digital-friendly, suited to interfaces and functional branding where clarity is prioritized.
The design appears intended as a practical oblique companion for general-purpose sans typography—delivering clear, rounded forms and consistent spacing while adding emphasis through slant rather than decorative detailing.
Figures are simple and modern, with round forms that harmonize well with the letter bowls. The italics are more oblique than calligraphic, keeping curves smooth and mechanical rather than brush-like, which helps maintain a steady, controlled color across lines of text.
