A monoline sans with extended proportions and generous horizontal spread. Forms are built from smooth, rounded geometry—elliptical bowls, soft terminals, and clean joins—creating a streamlined, continuous rhythm. Curves stay open and spacious (notably in C, S, and the lowercase rounds), while verticals remain straight and steady; diagonals are crisp and symmetrical in V/W/X. Counters are large and uncluttered, and the overall spacing feels roomy, giving the design a light, floating texture in text.
Best suited to display settings where width and openness can be an asset—headlines, logos/wordmarks, posters, and packaging. It can also work for large-size UI or product titling where a sleek, modern voice is desired, while the extended proportions suggest avoiding tight measures or small sizes where spacing becomes constrained.
The letterforms project a futuristic, clean-cut tone with a slightly playful edge. Its wide stance and rounded geometry evoke modern interface and sci‑fi styling, while the consistent stroke behavior keeps it calm and controlled rather than expressive or noisy.
Likely designed to deliver a contemporary, forward-looking sans built from simple geometric primitives, prioritizing smooth curvature, wide stance, and a clean, minimal stroke for high-impact display typography.
The design leans heavily on ellipse-driven construction, which gives many glyphs a horizontally stretched, aerodynamic feel. Numerals follow the same smooth, open logic, with particularly rounded 2/3 and an oval 0 that matches the letter bowls.
