A slanted sans with clean, low-contrast strokes and softly rounded terminals. The design reads as a mechanically sheared italic rather than a calligraphic one, keeping stroke widths steady and curves smooth. Counters are open and generous, with a straightforward geometric backbone that’s tempered by slight humanist shaping in curves and joins. Spacing appears even and compact enough for setting continuous text, and the numerals match the same oblique, no-nonsense construction for consistent rhythm.
Well-suited for interface typography, dashboards, and product branding where an italic voice is needed for emphasis while maintaining clarity. It can also serve in editorial layouts for subheads, sidebars, and short paragraphs, and works cleanly for captions and callouts where space is limited and legibility matters.
The overall tone is contemporary and efficient, with the italic angle adding motion and emphasis without feeling ornate. Its rounded geometry keeps it approachable, while the crisp forms and steady rhythm lean toward a practical, UI-ready voice.
Designed to provide a clear, contemporary sans in a dedicated italic style—prioritizing consistency, readability, and a smooth geometric texture while delivering a sense of speed and emphasis through its oblique construction.
The italic slant is pronounced and consistent across capitals, lowercase, and figures, giving headings and pull quotes an energetic forward drive. Round letters maintain smooth ovals, while diagonals and joins stay sharp and uncluttered, supporting clear word shapes at a glance.
