A slanted sans with a smooth, rounded construction and consistent stroke weight. Curves are generously drawn and apertures stay open, giving counters a clear, airy feel. The lowercase is notably large relative to the capitals, with compact ascenders and descenders that keep lines visually tight. Terminals are clean and slightly softened, while diagonals (as in A, V, W, X) stay crisp, producing an even rhythm across words and numbers.
It works well for interface typography, product copy, and editorial text where a clean slanted voice is needed without calling too much attention to itself. The open shapes and large lowercase help in short paragraphs, captions, and navigation elements, while the smooth geometry also fits contemporary brand systems and light signage.
The overall tone is contemporary and approachable, balancing a polished, editorial refinement with an easy, everyday friendliness. Its gentle rounding and steady cadence feel calm and unobtrusive rather than assertive, making it well suited to content-forward layouts.
The design appears intended to provide a modern, readable slanted sans that stays neutral in tone while remaining personable. It emphasizes clarity through open counters and rounded geometry, aiming for consistent texture in continuous reading and a refined look in display sizes.
Forms lean toward humanist proportions: the single-storey “a” and “g” read straightforward and informal, while the uppercase maintains clarity with broad, rounded bowls. The numerals appear simple and legible, matching the same soft geometry and slanted posture for a cohesive texture in mixed text.
