A slanted, monospaced sans with sturdy, low-contrast strokes and rounded-rectangle geometry. Curves and corners are softened into superelliptic forms, giving bowls and counters a squared-off roundness rather than true circles. The overall rhythm is even and grid-friendly, with consistent advance widths and straightforward construction; diagonals and joins are kept clean, and terminals tend to be blunt with gentle rounding.
Well suited to UI labels, system-like headings, code snippets, and data tables where fixed-width alignment is helpful. It can also support technical branding, dashboards, and packaging or editorial callouts that want a modern, instrument-style voice without extreme sharpness.
The tone feels technical and pragmatic, like a functional interface typeface with a subtle retro-computing flavor. Its oblique posture adds motion and urgency while the softened corners keep it approachable rather than harsh.
The design appears intended to deliver a clean, monospaced italic voice that remains legible and regularized in a grid. By combining an oblique stance with softened superellipse curves, it aims for a contemporary, device-friendly look that still feels distinctive in display sizes.
Capitals read as compact and engineered, while the lowercase keeps simple, workmanlike shapes with clear differentiation between similar forms. Numerals follow the same rounded-rect logic, staying consistent with the font’s mechanical, screen-oriented silhouette.
