A lightly built, monoline italic sans with rounded terminals and softly modeled curves. Forms lean consistently to the right with smooth, continuous strokes and minimal modulation, giving an even color in text. Counters are generally open and circular-to-elliptical, while joins and corners are slightly softened rather than sharply geometric. Proportions feel balanced and readable, with straightforward uppercase structures and more fluid, handwritten-leaning lowercase shapes.
Works well for user interfaces, short-to-medium reading passages, and captions where a light, unobtrusive italic voice is useful. It also suits branding and editorial applications that want a modern sans feel with a softer, more personal cadence.
The overall tone is relaxed and friendly, combining a clean sans foundation with an informal italic slant. It reads as contemporary and approachable, with a gentle rhythm that feels conversational rather than corporate or rigid.
Likely designed to provide a clean italic companion that stays legible at small sizes while adding a gentle, human tone. The rounded terminals and smooth curves suggest an emphasis on friendliness and ease of reading over strict geometric precision.
Lowercase construction suggests a humanist influence, with single-storey forms where expected and a generally open, uncluttered design. Numerals follow the same light, rounded logic, maintaining consistency with the alphabet in stroke endings and curvature.
