A slanted sans with sturdy, uniform strokes and rounded, open counters. The letterforms lean consistently with a steady rhythm and minimal modulation, giving the design a clean, engineered feel. Curves are smooth and full, terminals are generally blunt or softly rounded, and joins stay crisp, keeping the silhouette bold and uncomplicated across letters and numerals.
Well-suited to coding interfaces, terminal-style displays, and any setting where aligned columns matter, such as tables, forms, dashboards, and data readouts. The clear, sturdy shapes also work well for UI labels, captions, and compact signage where quick scanning is important.
The overall tone is pragmatic and workmanlike, with a modern, technical voice. Its consistent slant adds forward motion and energy without becoming expressive or calligraphic, reading as purposeful rather than decorative.
The design appears intended as a practical, slanted companion for structured typography, emphasizing consistency, legibility, and predictable spacing. It prioritizes simple geometry and robust letterforms to remain clear under dense composition and repeated patterns.
Circular forms like O/0 are generous and stable, while diagonals (A, V, W, X, Y) feel strong and evenly weighted. The lowercase maintains clear differentiation (notably a single-storey a and g), and the numerals are straightforward and highly legible, suited to continuous text as well as short strings.
