A slim, oblique sans with monoline strokes and softly rounded joins that keep counters clean and open. The letterforms are tall and compressed, with a consistent forward slant and smooth, continuous curves in bowls and shoulders. Terminals are generally clean and slightly rounded, and the overall rhythm is even and light on the page, with generous interior space for its width.
Well suited to headlines, short editorial lines, and brand marks where a refined italic voice is needed without calligraphic complexity. It also works for packaging and UI accents that benefit from a sleek, space-efficient texture, especially where a sense of speed or modernity is desired.
The font reads as contemporary and streamlined, projecting a light, agile tone. Its forward-leaning posture adds motion and a subtle technical flair, while the rounded geometry keeps the feel approachable rather than severe.
Likely drawn to provide a clean, contemporary oblique companion with a compact footprint and smooth, rounded construction. The design prioritizes a consistent, streamlined texture and clear counters, aiming for modern display versatility rather than overt ornament.
Capitals show a mix of straight-sided construction and rounded bowls that creates a crisp, engineered silhouette. Numerals follow the same slim, rounded logic, with simplified shapes that stay legible at display and short-text sizes.
