A slanted sans with a rounded-rectangle (superellipse) construction that keeps corners soft while maintaining crisp, straight segments. Strokes are largely monolinear with clean terminals and a consistent, engineered rhythm across caps and lowercase. Counters tend to be squarish and open, with generous rounding that prevents sharp joins and gives letters a smooth, molded look. Figures and letters share the same forward-leaning stance, producing a cohesive, fast visual flow in text.
Well-suited to headlines, logos, and branding where a fast, modern impression is desired. It also fits technology-facing UI elements, dashboards, and product graphics that benefit from rounded geometry and a technical tone. For longer reading, it works best in short paragraphs, captions, or callouts where the slant adds energy without overwhelming the layout.
The overall tone feels futuristic and technical, with a sporty, aerodynamic energy. Rounded corners soften the voice, keeping it approachable while still reading as precision-driven and modern. It also carries a subtle retro sci‑fi flavor due to its squared curves and italicized momentum.
The font appears designed to translate superelliptical, rounded-rect geometry into an italicized sans that communicates motion and precision. Its consistent stroke system and softened corners suggest an intention to feel engineered and contemporary while remaining friendly and legible in display-led settings.
The design favors extended horizontals and rounded corners that help text feel continuous and streamlined. The oblique angle is strong enough to suggest speed in headlines, while the steady stroke behavior keeps word shapes stable for short to medium text settings.
