A streamlined oblique sans with softly squared, superelliptic curves and a monoline stroke. Letterforms are condensed with generous internal rounding, producing oval counters and rounded-rectangle bowls. Terminals are clean and mostly uniform, with occasional hooked or tapered joins (notably in forms like J, j, and y) that add motion without introducing calligraphic contrast. Numerals follow the same narrow, rounded construction, keeping a consistent rhythm and texture across text.
Works well for short to medium-length text where a sleek, contemporary voice is desired—such as UI labels, dashboards, titles, and brand lockups. The condensed proportions make it useful when space is tight, and the rounded, oblique forms can add energy to posters, product names, and tech-oriented packaging or signage.
The overall tone feels modern and engineered—smooth, speedy, and a bit sci‑fi. Its consistent slant and rounded geometry read as dynamic yet controlled, suggesting contemporary interfaces, transport, or product design contexts rather than editorial tradition.
Designed to deliver a fast, modern sans look built from rounded-rectangle geometry, combining compact width with a consistent slant for momentum. The aim appears to be a cohesive, system-like aesthetic that stays clean in text while retaining distinctive character shapes.
The uppercase maintains a simple, architectural structure while the lowercase introduces more personality through looped/curved descenders and compact shoulders, giving text a lively, forward-leaning cadence. Round letters like O/Q are notably squarish-rounded, reinforcing the superelliptic theme throughout the set.
