A slanted, monoline sans with rounded geometry and open counters. The strokes stay even and smooth, with a slightly calligraphic, oblique construction rather than a mechanically sheared slant. Uppercase forms feel broad and stable with generous curves (notably in C, G, O, Q), while the lowercase is more compact and distinctly smaller in proportion, reinforcing a shorter x-height impression. Terminals are clean and largely unadorned, and the overall rhythm is airy, with clear interior spaces and consistent curve quality across letters and numerals.
Well suited to magazines, headlines, and brand systems that want a clean sans voice with built-in motion from the slant. It can carry short to medium passages when set with comfortable leading, and it also performs nicely for packaging and poster work where rounded forms and clarity are priorities.
The italic stance gives the face forward motion and a contemporary, editorial energy. Its rounded shapes and even color keep it approachable and readable, balancing a neutral tone with a hint of sophistication.
The design appears intended as a modern italic companion with a friendly, rounded construction and consistent stroke weight, aiming for clarity and versatility while adding energy through its oblique posture.
Wide round letters sit alongside narrower, more vertical forms, creating a subtly irregular texture that feels lively rather than rigid. Numerals follow the same smooth, even-stroke logic, reading clearly in running text and at display sizes.
