A slender, monoline sans with a consistent rightward slant and smoothly rounded curves. The design favors open, circular bowls and clean joins, with a gently geometric construction and minimal stroke modulation. Proportions feel tall and lightly built, with an elevated x-height and long ascenders that keep the texture bright and spacious. Numerals and capitals follow the same restrained, rounded logic, producing an even, quiet rhythm in text.
Works well for editorial subheads, brand wordmarks, packaging, and other layouts that benefit from a clean, refined slanted voice. In interfaces it can serve for short UI text, captions, and secondary typography where a light, airy presence is desired and contrast against the background is strong.
The overall tone is light, contemporary, and understated—more elegant than technical, with a friendly softness from the rounded forms. Its slanted stance adds a sense of motion and sophistication without becoming expressive or calligraphic.
Likely drawn to provide a minimalist, contemporary italicized sans for design systems that want a softer, more elegant alternative to stark grotesks. The emphasis appears to be on smooth readability, open forms, and a polished, modern texture in both display lines and supporting text.
Counters are generous and terminals are clean, which helps preserve clarity at smaller sizes despite the thin strokes. The slant and spacing create a flowing horizontal cadence that reads especially smoothly in longer lines.
