A slender, monoline sans with a persistent rightward slant and softly rounded terminals. Curves are drawn with generous radii and open apertures, giving counters a light, breathable feel. Uppercase forms are simple and streamlined (notably the single‑storey style of the G), while the lowercase leans humanist with single-storey a and g, a looping y, and tall, lightly curved ascenders and descenders. Spacing reads even and calm, with a smooth baseline rhythm and minimal stroke modulation.
This face suits light, contemporary typography where an unobtrusive but personable voice is desired—such as UI labels, editorial sidebars, lifestyle branding, and packaging. It can also work for short headlines and pull quotes when a gentle, modern slant is appropriate.
The overall tone is light and friendly, balancing contemporary cleanliness with a handwritten ease. Its slanted stance adds momentum and a conversational feel without becoming decorative or quirky.
The design appears intended to provide a clean sans foundation with a relaxed, humanist slant—prioritizing openness, smooth curves, and an easy reading rhythm over strict geometric rigidity.
Figures are similarly slender and rounded; the 1 is a simple vertical with a foot, and several numerals rely on smooth, continuous curves (notably 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, 9). The design favors clarity through open shapes rather than sharp joins, which helps maintain a soft, approachable texture in text.
