A monoline, oblique sans with a wide stance and generous spacing. Curves are built from smooth, rounded-rectangle geometry, producing soft-cornered bowls and consistently open counters. Terminals are clean and mostly flat-cut, while straight strokes stay crisp and lightly tensioned, giving the design a precise, engineered rhythm. Lowercase forms are streamlined and simplified, with single-storey shapes and compact joins that keep the texture even in continuous text; numerals follow the same rounded, linear logic for a cohesive set.
Best suited to short to medium settings where its wide, airy forms can breathe—such as UI labels, product and tech branding, signage/wayfinding, and contemporary headlines. In display sizes it emphasizes a clean, futuristic voice; in running text it works when generous tracking and ample leading are available.
The overall tone feels modern and aerodynamic—more “interface” than “print,” with a calm, high-tech neutrality. Its light, refined presence reads as sleek and understated, suggesting contemporary product design, mobility, and digital systems.
The design appears intended to merge geometric softness with technical precision: rounded superelliptic curves for friendliness, paired with disciplined linear strokes and a steady slant for speed and modernity. The result is a contemporary sans aimed at digital-forward communication and sleek visual identities.
Round letters stay distinctly squarish in their curvature, which helps the design maintain a consistent footprint across the alphabet. The oblique angle is steady and measured, adding motion without becoming cursive or calligraphic.
