A slanted sans with smooth, rounded bowls and broadly geometric construction. Strokes stay even and sturdy, with clean terminals and minimal modulation, producing a consistent rhythm across capitals and lowercase. Curves are generous and nearly circular in forms like C, O, and G, while diagonals in A, K, V, W, X, and Y read sharp and energetic due to the oblique angle. Figures are straightforward and open, with clear counters and a compact, efficient silhouette.
Works well where a clean oblique sans is needed for emphasis, such as interface labels, dashboards, and navigation systems. Its sturdy shapes and open counters also suit short-to-medium headlines, product branding, and infographic typography where quick scanning is important.
The overall tone is modern and pragmatic, with a forward-leaning, active feel. Its simplicity and geometric calm convey clarity and efficiency rather than warmth or ornament, making it feel contemporary and slightly technical.
Designed to provide a straightforward, contemporary sans with an inherent sense of movement. The intent appears to balance geometric simplicity with readable text color in running samples, offering a practical italic voice for modern layouts.
The italic angle is pronounced enough to add motion without turning into a script-like gesture. Round punctuation and dots appear clean and centered, and the letterforms maintain a uniform, orderly texture in paragraph settings.
