A monolinear italic sans with a geometric, superelliptical construction: curves resolve into rounded-rectangle bowls and terminals, and corners are consistently softened rather than perfectly circular. Strokes maintain an even rhythm with minimal modulation, and many joins and endings show flattened, slightly squared curvature that gives forms a controlled, engineered feel. Uppercase shapes are streamlined and open, while lowercase forms keep simple, single-storey constructions (notably a and g) with compact bowls and straightforward, unadorned stems. Numerals follow the same rounded-rect logic, producing clear, uniform figures with squared-off curves and consistent slant across the set.
Well suited to interface typography and product ecosystems where a clean, slanted sans can add motion without becoming expressive or calligraphic. The consistent rounded geometry also fits contemporary branding, tech/editorial layouts, and signage or labeling systems that benefit from clear, uncomplicated letterforms and numerals.
The overall tone is contemporary and precise, with a forward-leaning, dynamic cadence that reads as efficient and tech-oriented. Rounded corners soften the rigidity, keeping the voice friendly while still feeling instrument-like and modern.
The design appears intended to merge a modern italic voice with a disciplined, rounded-rectangle geometry, producing a distinctive but restrained texture. It prioritizes consistency of curvature and corners to create a cohesive system that feels engineered, contemporary, and practical for everyday typographic use.
The italic angle is present across both text and isolated glyphs, and the superelliptical geometry is especially apparent in C/G/O/Q and in the rounded shoulders of n/m/u. The design favors clarity through open counters and simplified detailing, creating a smooth texture in running text without decorative distractions.
