A slanted sans serif with smooth, rounded construction and clear, open counters. Strokes are even and crisp with moderate contrast, and terminals read clean rather than calligraphic. The overall rhythm is compact and forward-leaning, with consistent spacing and a slightly squared, modern geometry in many curves. Numerals and capitals are straightforward and legible, matching the same restrained, streamlined structure.
Well-suited for interface typography, short-form editorial, and signage where a clean italic voice is needed. It works effectively in headlines, subheads, and callouts, and can also serve body text when a modern, slanted texture is desired.
The tone is contemporary and matter-of-fact, leaning toward a modern, efficient feel rather than expressive or decorative. Its slant adds a sense of motion and emphasis while staying controlled and professional.
Likely designed as a practical italic companion with a modern, geometric-leaning skeleton, aiming for clarity and speed while preserving a neutral, contemporary tone.
The italic angle is steady across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, creating a cohesive texture in paragraphs. Round letters stay smooth without exaggerated quirks, and joins/curves maintain a consistent mechanical precision that supports clarity at text sizes.
