A slanted sans with largely even stroke weight and clean, engineered curves. Letterforms are compact with modest contrast in optical thickness and a consistent oblique angle across caps, lowercase, and figures. Counters are generally open and round-to-oval, terminals are cleanly cut, and joins stay smooth rather than calligraphic. Proportions lean slightly condensed in the lowercase, with a tidy rhythm and restrained apertures that keep words cohesive at text sizes.
Works well for interface labels, product branding, and directional or informational signage where a clean italic voice is needed. It also suits headlines and subheads in editorial layouts or presentation decks, and can be used for compact numeric content such as dashboards or lightweight data callouts.
The overall tone feels contemporary and utilitarian, with a straightforward, no-nonsense voice. Its oblique stance adds energy and motion without becoming expressive or decorative, making it read as purposeful and modern.
Designed to provide a clear, contemporary sans italic that feels fast and functional while staying neutral enough for broad use. The consistent oblique angle and controlled geometry suggest an emphasis on coherence and legibility in short text and display settings.
Figures follow the same oblique construction and maintain consistent stroke behavior; the “0” is an oval without obvious internal differentiation in the sample. The lowercase shows a compact, efficient texture, and round letters (like o/c/e) stay smooth and controlled, contributing to a stable, predictable color in paragraphs.
