A slanted sans with smooth, round-based construction and a steady, even rhythm. Strokes are clean and largely uniform, with gently tapered terminals and subtle modulation that keeps the forms from feeling purely geometric. Uppercase shapes are compact and slightly condensed in feel, while the lowercase shows open apertures and straightforward, readable bowls. Numerals follow the same streamlined logic, with clear curves and uncluttered joins that maintain consistent texture across lines.
Well-suited for branding systems that need a modern, active voice, as well as headlines, subheads, and pull quotes where the slant can add emphasis. It can also work in interface labels and product packaging when a clean, forward-leaning sans is desired, especially at sizes where the open counters remain clear.
The overall tone is contemporary and energetic, with an italic forward lean that suggests motion and confidence. Its restrained detailing keeps it professional, while the rounded geometry adds approachability and a mildly sporty flavor.
Likely designed to provide a contemporary italic sans that balances geometric smoothness with practical readability. The intent appears to be a versatile, energetic style that can add motion and emphasis without becoming overly stylized.
The italic is relatively steep, producing a pronounced directional flow in text. Letterforms maintain clear differentiation (notably in the lowercase and figures) without relying on decorative features, emphasizing clarity and pace over ornament.
