A slanted, geometric sans with rounded-rectangle (superellipse) curves and a smooth, even stroke rhythm. Counters are generous and apertures stay open, giving letters a clear, airy silhouette despite the compact, efficient forms. Curves resolve into slightly squared shoulders rather than perfect circles, while terminals remain clean and unadorned. The overall spacing feels tidy and controlled, with consistent width behavior across the set and a crisp, contemporary texture in text.
Well-suited to interface typography, product branding, and concise editorial headlines where a clean, contemporary slanted voice is needed. It should also work effectively in wayfinding and dashboard contexts thanks to open forms and consistent, modern geometry.
The tone is modern and understated, with a quietly technical, design-forward feel. Its slant adds motion and friendliness without becoming playful, keeping the voice professional and streamlined.
The design appears intended to provide a contemporary italic companion for geometric sans systems, emphasizing soft-rectilinear curves and clear, open letterforms. The goal reads as efficient readability paired with a polished, tech-adjacent aesthetic.
Rounded corners and softly squared bowls create a distinctive “soft geometry” that reads more structured than a humanist italic. Numerals follow the same simplified geometry, producing a uniform, UI-friendly look in mixed alphanumeric settings.
