A slanted, monolinear sans with gently rounded curves and smooth joins. Letterforms favor open apertures and broad, circular bowls (notably in C, G, O, Q), paired with simple, linear strokes in E, F, H, N, and T. Terminals are clean and mostly unadorned, with subtle curvature that keeps the texture soft rather than rigid. Proportions feel balanced and readable, with a moderate x-height and clear differentiation between similar shapes in the alphabet and numerals.
Well suited for editorial layouts, brand systems that need a modern slanted voice, and interface typography where a clean italic can carry emphasis without becoming ornate. It also performs well in short headlines and captions, maintaining clarity and a smooth reading rhythm.
The overall tone is contemporary and composed, projecting a clean, editorial voice without feeling cold. Its italic angle adds motion and emphasis, making it feel active and streamlined while still approachable.
Likely designed as a versatile italic sans that prioritizes readability and a polished, contemporary texture. The goal appears to be a restrained, dependable slanted style that can serve both expressive emphasis and everyday text setting.
The slant is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, producing an even rhythm in longer text. Numerals are simple and open, matching the letterforms’ rounded geometry and maintaining a cohesive texture in mixed alphanumeric settings.
