A slanted sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softly squared curves throughout. Strokes stay fairly even with only subtle modulation, and terminals are clean and unbracketed. Round letters like O/Q and numerals like 0/8 read as superelliptical shapes rather than true circles, giving a controlled, engineered geometry. Counters and apertures are open, spacing is orderly, and diagonals in A/V/W/X are crisp, producing a smooth, consistent rhythm in words and figures.
It suits interface typography, product UI, and dashboards where a slanted voice is useful for emphasis while staying clean and legible. The controlled geometry also works well for contemporary branding, short headlines, captions, and editorial callouts that benefit from a modern, streamlined italic.
The overall tone feels contemporary and utilitarian, with a sleek, slightly fast-forward italic stance. Its rounded geometry softens the technical structure, balancing precision with approachability. The result reads as confident and modern without becoming decorative.
The design appears intended to deliver a pragmatic italic companion for modern digital and brand settings, using superelliptical rounding to keep forms consistent and friendly. It prioritizes clear word shapes and cohesive letter–number harmony while maintaining a crisp, engineered feel.
The slant is steady across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, and the forms emphasize clarity with minimal quirks. Numerals follow the same rounded-rectangle logic as the letters, keeping UI-style consistency between text and data.
