A monoline oblique sans with a geometric, superelliptical construction: curves read as rounded-rectangle arcs rather than perfectly circular bowls. The design feels intentionally wide with generous horizontal proportions and open counters, keeping forms airy and clear. Terminals are clean and largely unmodulated, and the slant is steady across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, giving the set a consistent forward-leaning rhythm. Letterforms show simplified, contemporary structures (notably in the rounded bowls and compact joins), supporting an even texture in text.
Well-suited to contemporary branding and identity systems that want a clean, forward-leaning sans. The wide proportions and open counters make it effective for UI labels, dashboards, and signage where quick recognition matters, and it also performs confidently in headlines and poster typography where its rounded-rect geometry becomes a defining visual cue.
The overall tone is modern and purposeful, with a subtle sense of speed from the consistent slant. Rounded geometry softens the voice while maintaining a precise, engineered feel, landing between friendly and utilitarian.
The design appears aimed at delivering a streamlined oblique sans with a distinctive superelliptical geometry—combining efficient readability with a modern, slightly dynamic stance for interface and branding contexts.
Round characters (like C, O, Q, and numerals) emphasize the superelliptical silhouette, producing a distinctive ‘squared-round’ personality. The spacing and generous widths help maintain clarity at display sizes and keep words from feeling cramped despite the oblique angle.
