A monoline, oblique sans with a pronounced rightward slant and an angular, engineered construction. Curves are simplified into broad arcs while many joins and terminals resolve as sharp, chamfer-like cuts, creating a mix of rounded bowls and hard-edged corners. Several letters show idiosyncratic geometry—boxy counters and segmented strokes in places—giving the alphabet a custom, schematic feel while maintaining consistent stroke weight and clear rhythm. Figures follow the same logic, with straightforward, open forms and occasional squared-off detailing.
Well-suited to headlines, posters, and brand marks where a modern, technical voice is desired. The strong slant and crisp geometry also fit sports, automotive, and tech-themed visuals, and can work for short UI labels or product naming when set with enough size and spacing to let the detailing read clearly.
The overall tone feels technical and forward-looking, with a slightly experimental edge. Its italic momentum reads fast and dynamic, suggesting motion and modern systems design rather than warmth or tradition.
The design appears intended to offer a contemporary italic sans that feels fast and engineered, combining familiar sans proportions with unconventional, angular constructions to stand out in display typography.
The design balances legibility with stylization: many characters stay familiar in silhouette, but distinctive internal shapes and angular cutoffs add personality. The italic angle is a defining feature, and the sharper terminals make the texture look crisp at display sizes.
