A slanted sans with streamlined, open outlines and a consistent linear stroke. Curves are drawn as smooth ellipses, while diagonals are long and taut, giving the alphabet a forward-leaning rhythm. Terminals are clean and mostly straight-cut, counters stay open (notably in C, S, and e), and the overall spacing reads even and disciplined in text. Numerals follow the same oblique geometry, with simple, legible forms and minimal ornament.
Well-suited to compact editorial elements and interface typography where a crisp, contemporary voice is needed—such as UI labels, charts, wayfinding-style graphics, and short-form headings. It can also support brand systems that want a modern, kinetic tone without relying on heavy stylistic quirks.
The overall tone is contemporary and efficient, with a subtle engineered feel. Its steady slant and restrained detailing convey motion and clarity rather than expressiveness or warmth.
Likely designed to provide a clean, modern sans with built-in forward motion for emphasis and speed, maintaining legibility through open counters, simple terminals, and consistent stroke behavior.
Round letters (O, Q, 0, 8, 9) are slightly ovalized, reinforcing the oblique momentum. Ascenders and descenders are relatively prominent in the lowercase, helping word shapes remain distinct in running text.
