A clean oblique sans with monoline strokes and softly rounded joins. Letterforms lean consistently to the right, with open apertures and generous interior counters that keep text clear at display and paragraph sizes. Proportions feel contemporary and slightly variable across glyphs, with broad, stable curves in C/G/O and straightforward, minimally constructed diagonals in K/V/W/X. Terminals are mostly blunt or gently rounded, and the overall rhythm is smooth and even without sharp contrast or decorative detailing.
Well-suited for interface labels, product copy, and dashboards where clarity is important but a rigid, upright tone isn’t required. The oblique construction also works nicely for contemporary branding, headlines, and presentation typography, and it should hold up for short editorial passages and wayfinding-style signage when set with comfortable spacing.
The tone is modern and utilitarian with a light sense of motion from the oblique stance. It reads friendly and approachable rather than technical, balancing neutrality with a subtle energetic slant. The shapes feel contemporary and uncluttered, giving copy a crisp, straightforward voice.
Designed to deliver an everyday sans voice with built-in emphasis through an oblique stance. The goal appears to be broad readability and a modern, approachable feel, using open forms and consistent stroke weight to keep the texture even across mixed-case text and numerals.
Numerals are simple and highly legible, matching the letterforms’ open counters and steady stroke weight. The lowercase shows a single-storey "a" and "g" and a compact, unobtrusive dot on "i/j", contributing to a casual, readable texture in running text.
