A slanted, monoline sans with rounded, near-geometric construction and smooth curves. Strokes stay even and crisp, with generous apertures and open counters that keep the texture light and legible. Proportions feel balanced and contemporary, with slightly rounded joins and terminals that avoid sharpness; the italic angle is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, creating a steady forward rhythm in text.
Works well for interfaces, product pages, and dashboard labeling where a clear italic is needed for emphasis without sacrificing readability. It also suits modern branding systems, editorial subheads, and captions, especially in layouts that benefit from a light, open typographic color and a subtle sense of motion.
The overall tone is modern and approachable, with a calm, utilitarian clarity rather than overt personality. Its steady slant adds motion and informality without becoming expressive or calligraphic, giving a friendly, contemporary feel suitable for everyday UI and editorial use.
Likely designed as a versatile italic companion for a contemporary sans system, prioritizing clarity and consistency across letters and figures. The restrained geometry and open forms suggest an intention to stay neutral and adaptable while still reading as modern and friendly.
Uppercase forms read clean and uncluttered, while the lowercase keeps a simple, single-storey feel in key shapes (notably the ‘a’), reinforcing an accessible, contemporary voice. Numerals appear straightforward and readable, matching the same smooth, rounded logic as the letters for consistent color in mixed alphanumeric settings.
