A slanted sans with smooth, rounded construction and even stroke weight throughout. Letterforms feel open and breathable, with generous internal counters, wide proportions, and clean terminals that avoid sharp finishing. Curves are built from broad arcs and near-circular bowls, while diagonals and joins stay straightforward and uncluttered. Overall spacing reads comfortable and consistent, giving the glyph set an even rhythm in text.
Works well for interface labels, product pages, and contemporary branding where a clean sans is needed but with added motion from the slant. Its open shapes and wide set make it suitable for short headlines, signage, and large-format copy, while the steady stroke and uncomplicated forms also support general-purpose text in moderate sizes.
The tone is contemporary and approachable, balancing a technical cleanliness with the energy of an oblique stance. It reads neutral enough for general communication, yet slightly more active and informal than an upright sans, making it feel brisk and modern without becoming loud.
The design appears intended as a versatile italic companion or standalone oblique sans that prioritizes clarity and modern neutrality. It aims to deliver a smooth, geometric-leaning texture with friendly openness, providing emphasis and forward motion without relying on high contrast or decorative detail.
Uppercase forms emphasize simple geometry and clarity, while lowercase shapes keep a compact, readable silhouette with single-storey forms where expected and a tidy dotted i/j treatment. Numerals follow the same rounded, low-drama logic, with smooth curves and clear differentiation at display sizes.
