A slanted, monoline sans with square-leaning construction and rounded corners that give curves a superellipse feel. Strokes stay even and sturdy, with blunt, mostly straight-cut terminals and minimal modulation. Counters are compact and rectangular in character, while diagonals (as in A, V, W, X, Y) are clean and sharply joined. The lowercase maintains a straightforward, engineered rhythm, with single-storey forms and a compact, slightly condensed-looking footprint within the fixed character cells.
Well suited to terminals, code or console-style UI, tabular settings, and information-dense layouts where consistent alignment matters. It also works for labels, schematics, dashboards, and compact headings that benefit from a technical, system-like voice.
The overall tone feels pragmatic and engineered—like labeling, instrumentation, or system text—while the rounded-rectangle geometry adds a mild retro, tech-adjacent personality. The italic slant pushes it toward motion and emphasis without becoming expressive or calligraphic.
Likely intended as a functional italic companion for monospaced environments, combining clear, simplified glyph construction with rounded-rectangle geometry to keep the texture steady at small sizes while still feeling distinctly modern-industrial.
Legibility cues are reinforced by open apertures and simplified shapes, with distinctive numerals and a clear, sturdy baseline presence. The consistent spacing and measured proportions support grid-based layouts and any context where alignment is visually important.
