A streamlined oblique sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softly squared curves throughout. Strokes stay mostly even, with gentle modulation in turns and joins, and terminals are clean and slightly rounded rather than sharply cut. Counters tend toward superelliptical shapes, giving bowls and rounds a compact, engineered feel, while diagonals and straight stems keep a crisp rhythm. The overall width is generous and the spacing reads airy, with clear apertures and simplified forms that prioritize legibility in motion.
Well-suited to interface typography, product labels, and technical or automotive-themed branding where a fast, streamlined voice is desired. The open forms and generous width help maintain clarity in short bursts—buttons, headings, navigation, and signage—while the oblique stance can add energy to posters and marketing lines without heavy ornament.
The tone is modern and slightly futuristic, with an engineered, aerodynamic flavor rather than a calligraphic one. Its rounded-square geometry feels tech-forward and pragmatic, projecting speed, cleanliness, and controlled precision. The oblique slant adds urgency and dynamism without becoming expressive or playful.
Likely designed to translate superelliptical, rounded-rectangle geometry into a functional oblique sans that feels contemporary and efficient. The consistent corner treatment and restrained contrast suggest a focus on systematic construction, clean rhythm, and a modern tech aesthetic.
Capitals are clean and geometric, with squared-round bowls and consistent corner radii that unify the set. Figures follow the same rounded-rectangle logic, reading clear and contemporary, and the overall texture stays light and uncluttered at text sizes.
