A monoline sans with a consistent rightward slant and softly rounded stroke endings. Letterforms lean on simple circular and elliptical construction, with open counters and generous interior space that keeps shapes airy. Curves are smooth and even, while straight strokes stay clean and slightly softened; joins and terminals avoid sharp corners, giving the design a gentle, streamlined rhythm. Uppercase proportions are straightforward and readable, and the lowercase maintains an easy, steady flow suited to continuous text.
It works well for contemporary interface text, product branding, and editorial settings where a clear italic voice is needed without feeling rigid. The open shapes and smooth curves also make it suitable for packaging and signage, especially in short-to-medium passages and supportive typographic roles.
The overall tone is modern and relaxed, with a friendly, unforced personality. Its rounded geometry and italic motion suggest an informal, conversational feel while staying tidy and controlled.
The design appears intended to provide a clean italic sans with approachable, rounded construction—balancing clarity and warmth while maintaining a modern, minimal surface.
Capitals and numerals share the same softened geometry, producing a cohesive, unified texture. The numerals read clearly with simple forms and consistent stroke behavior, supporting practical use in mixed text.
