A slim, monoline sans with an oblique stance and compact proportions. Curves are smooth and fairly geometric, while joins stay tidy and restrained, keeping counters open for a condensed design. Terminals are mostly straight-cut, and the overall rhythm is even, with consistent stroke weight and minimal modulation. Numerals and capitals keep a streamlined, utilitarian silhouette that reads clearly at display and text sizes.
Works well where space is limited and a clean, contemporary tone is needed—UI labels, navigation, captions, and compact editorial layouts. The condensed, oblique construction also suits subheads and posters where a bit of forward motion helps hierarchy without adding ornament.
The tone is contemporary and matter-of-fact, with a slightly forward-leaning energy that feels efficient and purposeful. Its restraint and clarity give it a neutral, modern voice suited to information-forward settings rather than expressive or decorative ones.
Likely designed to provide a space-saving, modern sans voice with a subtle dynamic slant, balancing geometric clarity with practical readability for general-purpose use across interfaces and print.
The condensed width and tight internal spacing create a strong vertical emphasis, and the oblique angle adds momentum without becoming calligraphic. Round letters maintain smooth bowls, while diagonals (such as in A, V, W, X, Y) stay crisp, reinforcing a precise, engineered feel.
