This typeface is an oblique sans with smooth, rounded curves and a consistent, even stroke. Letterforms lean forward with a steady rhythm, combining gently elliptical bowls (C, O, Q) with crisp, angled joins in letters like K, M, N, and V. Counters are open and uncomplicated, and terminals read as cleanly cut rather than calligraphic, keeping the overall texture tidy and uniform across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
It works well for interface text, short paragraphs, and supporting typography where an italic voice is needed for emphasis. The clean shapes and open interiors also make it suitable for subheads, captions, charts, and corporate or product collateral that benefits from a modern sans tone.
The overall tone is contemporary and matter-of-fact, with a subtle sense of motion from the slant. It feels professional and approachable rather than expressive, suited to clear communication where a slight italic emphasis is desired without becoming decorative.
The design appears intended as a practical oblique companion for a neutral sans system—prioritizing clarity, consistent texture, and a restrained, modern character while adding forward-leaning emphasis.
The lowercase shows a simple, single-storey construction where applicable and maintains a straightforward, legible silhouette. Numerals follow the same oblique stance and rounded geometry, integrating smoothly with text and display settings.
