A streamlined italic sans built from rounded-rectangle geometry, with superelliptic bowls and consistently softened corners. Strokes are uniform and open, with a gently engineered rhythm: straights stay crisp while curves transition through broad radii rather than perfect circles. Terminals are clean and rounded, counters are generous, and diagonals (as in N, V, W, Z) maintain an even, controlled slant. The lowercase follows a single-storey, simplified construction that keeps shapes compact and legible, while numerals echo the same rounded-rect logic for a cohesive set.
It suits technology-forward branding, UI or dashboard headings, packaging and product labels, and signage where a clean, engineered italic can imply motion and efficiency. It will also work well for short-to-medium text in editorial or promotional layouts when a sleek, contemporary texture is desired.
The overall tone feels modern and technical—suggesting speed, precision, and contemporary interface design. Its italic stance and rounded-square forms give it a sporty, forward-leaning character without becoming aggressive, reading as polished and quietly futuristic.
The design appears intended to translate rounded-rectangle industrial forms into an italic text system, balancing a futuristic, speed-oriented voice with clear, open letterforms for practical use in interfaces and modern graphic applications.
The superelliptic construction creates a distinctive “soft-cornered” texture in text, especially noticeable in rounded letters and in the squared-off bowls of characters like O/0 and D. Ascenders and descenders are restrained, supporting a tidy line profile and a consistent, modular feel across mixed-case settings.
