A condensed, oblique sans with monoline construction and softly rounded geometry. Curves and bowls read as superellipse-like—more rounded-rectangle than perfect circle—while verticals stay straight and calm. Terminals are clean and largely unadorned, with gentle rounding that keeps the texture smooth at both display and text sizes. The overall rhythm is tight and upright in proportion despite the slant, producing an even, contemporary color across lines.
Performs well in editorial headlines, subheads, and compact layouts where a narrow, slanted sans can add pace without heavy emphasis. It also suits branding and packaging that benefits from a clean, modern voice, and can work for UI labels or navigation where space is limited and the letterforms remain clear.
The tone is contemporary and efficient, with a subtle sense of motion from the consistent slant. Rounded forms keep it approachable rather than technical, while the narrow stance and clean terminals make it feel streamlined and editorial.
Likely designed to provide a space-efficient italic sans that reads cleanly while adding energy through slant and rounded, modern geometry. The consistent stroke and restrained details suggest an emphasis on clarity, cohesion, and contemporary versatility in display-to-text applications.
Numerals and capitals keep to the same condensed, forward-leaning stance, giving mixed setting a cohesive flow. The lowercase shows a straightforward, utilitarian shaping with open counters and a restrained, workmanlike feel rather than calligraphic flair.
