A monoline, oblique sans with wide proportions and a clear geometric foundation. Curves resolve into softened superellipse-like rounds, while straighter strokes keep a taut, engineered feel. Terminals are clean and largely unadorned, with occasional horizontal cuts that echo drafting or plotting aesthetics. The rhythm is spacious, with open counters and generous internal whitespace that helps the letterforms stay legible despite the thin stroke.
Best suited to display sizes where its thin strokes and wide stance can read crisply: headlines, posters, and tech-oriented branding. It can also work for UI labels, dashboards, and motion graphics where a sleek oblique voice is desired, especially when set with ample spacing and strong contrast against the background.
The overall tone feels modern and high-tech, with a calm, understated sleekness. Its airy weight and measured slant suggest speed and precision rather than warmth, giving it a contemporary, interface-friendly personality.
Likely designed to deliver a sleek, contemporary sans for futuristic or technical contexts, pairing superellipse-influenced rounds with disciplined straight strokes. The intent reads as a lightweight, spacious display face that communicates precision and modernity while staying visually minimal.
Round characters like O/Q and 8 lean toward rounded-rectangle geometry, contrasting with sharper diagonals in A/V/W/X. Several shapes show deliberate, schematic-looking joins and cross-strokes, reinforcing a constructed, industrial character. Numerals follow the same linear, streamlined logic, reading cleanly in a minimalist setting.
