A slanted, monolinear sans with softly rounded terminals and smoothly drawn curves. Forms are built from clean circular and elliptical geometry, with open apertures and generous interior space that keeps letters clear at smaller sizes. Stroke endings tend to be slightly sheared rather than flat, reinforcing the forward-leaning rhythm, and the overall spacing reads even and uncluttered. Numerals match the letterforms with simple, rounded construction and a consistent, understated presence.
Works well for interface text, dashboards, and product surfaces that benefit from a clear sans with a dynamic slant. It also suits contemporary branding, marketing collateral, and editorial callouts where a friendly, modern voice is desired without sacrificing legibility.
The overall tone is contemporary and approachable, with a lightly energetic, forward-moving feel from the consistent slant. Its rounded shapes keep it friendly and informal, while the restrained detailing maintains a practical, workmanlike neutrality.
Likely intended as a versatile slanted sans for everyday communication—combining geometric roundness for clarity with an italicized posture to add momentum and emphasis in running text and display settings.
The italic is treated as a true companion style rather than a simple oblique: several lowercase forms show more cursive-like structure (notably the single-storey shapes and the flowing descenders), giving text a smooth, continuous texture. Uppercase remains straightforward and geometric, which helps maintain clarity in headings and short labels.
