A slanted sans with long, low-sitting letterforms and generous horizontal proportions. Strokes show pronounced modulation, with tapered entry/exit points and occasional hairline connections that create a streamlined, calligraphic-meets-tech rhythm. Curves are smooth and oval (notably in O/C/G), while straighter letters use crisp diagonals and extended arms; terminals are often subtly flared or sheared rather than blunt. Spacing appears open and even, and the overall texture reads light and airy despite the contrast.
Best suited to branding and logotype work, editorial headlines, posters, and packaging where its stretched italic stance and contrasted detailing can be appreciated at larger sizes. It can also work for short UI or product-marketing callouts when a sleek, forward-leaning voice is desired, but the fine transitions suggest avoiding very small text.
The tone feels futuristic and elegant, with a sense of speed from the consistent forward slant and stretched forms. High-contrast detailing and sharp diagonals add a fashionable, slightly experimental edge, while the rounded bowls keep it approachable and polished.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, speed-oriented sans that blends geometric ovals with calligraphic tapering for a premium, tech-forward impression. Its distinctive terminals and diagonal energy suggest a focus on display impact and brand differentiation rather than neutral text setting.
Several glyphs use distinctive gestures—such as a diagonal tail on Q, angular peaks in M/W, and streamlined crossbars/arms—that emphasize motion and a designed, logo-like personality. The numerals follow the same elongated, tapered logic, keeping the set visually cohesive in display settings.
