A monoline, oblique sans with smooth, rounded curves and clean terminals. The construction leans geometric while staying slightly human in its modulation of curves and joins, giving letters a calm rhythm rather than strict mechanical rigidity. Bowls and counters are open and spacious, with circular forms (O, o, 0) reading as near-elliptical and evenly weighted. Diagonals are crisp and consistent (V, W, X, Y), and the numerals follow the same streamlined, open shapes with clear differentiation and minimal ornamentation.
Well-suited to interface typography, dashboards, and product surfaces where a clean oblique voice is needed without heaviness. It also works for contemporary editorial layouts, pull quotes, and presentation systems, and can support branding that aims for a sleek, approachable modern feel.
The overall tone is modern and understated, with a light, brisk forward motion from the slant. Its openness and smooth curves feel approachable and contemporary, while the disciplined stroke behavior lends a subtly technical, product-oriented character.
Likely designed as a versatile oblique companion for modern sans-serif systems, prioritizing clarity, smooth flow, and consistent geometry across letters and numerals. The intent appears to balance a contemporary, slightly technical look with friendly openness for comfortable reading.
The italic angle is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, helping text maintain a cohesive flow in paragraphs. Round letters remain stable and balanced despite the slant, and the spacing appears intentionally generous to preserve clarity at smaller sizes and in continuous reading.
