A monoline italic sans with rounded, superellipse-influenced construction and gently squared curves. Strokes stay consistently thin, with smooth joins and softened terminals that keep counters open and forms legible despite the light build. Proportions feel slightly extended, with tall lowercase and long ascenders/descenders; bowls and ovals (O, Q, 0, 8, 9) read as rounded-rectangular rather than purely circular. Uppercase shapes are clean and pared back, while lowercase includes simple, single-storey forms (a, g) and a lightly hooked f, maintaining an even, flowing rhythm across text.
Best suited to situations where a light, contemporary italic is desired: interface labels, secondary typographic layers, captions, and compact editorial callouts. It can also work for modern branding, infographics, and posters where a sleek, quiet voice and distinctive rounded geometry help differentiate headings or short passages.
The overall tone is calm and refined, leaning toward a contemporary, minimalist sensibility. Its gentle curvature and forward slant create a sense of motion without becoming expressive or calligraphic, giving it a measured, understated elegance.
Likely designed to offer a clean, modern italic companion with a soft, rounded-rectangular geometry, prioritizing smooth rhythm and contemporary neutrality. The consistent thin stroke and open forms suggest an emphasis on clarity and a refined, understated presence in both display and supporting text roles.
Distinctive details include the superelliptic feel of rounded letters, a modest, clean tail on Q, and smooth, slightly squared bowls that add a subtle engineered character. Numerals match the text style with streamlined shapes and consistent stroke color, supporting a cohesive appearance in mixed alphanumeric settings.
