A slanted, monospaced sans with broad proportions and sturdy, even stroke widths. Forms lean on simple geometry—round bowls and counters paired with straight, angled terminals—producing a clean, engineered rhythm. Corners are mostly crisp rather than soft, while curves stay smooth and consistent; overall spacing is strictly fixed-width, creating a gridlike texture in text. Numerals and capitals read bold and stable, with open apertures and clear internal space that hold up well at display sizes.
Well-suited to coding environments, terminal-style interfaces, and any situation where character alignment matters, such as tables, logs, and forms. It also works for compact UI labeling and technical documentation where a disciplined, consistent texture is preferred over typographic nuance.
The tone feels technical and workmanlike, with a contemporary, mechanical character. Its slant adds motion and urgency without becoming expressive or decorative, keeping the overall impression pragmatic and tool-oriented.
Likely designed as a practical monospaced sans for screen-centric, structured reading—prioritizing alignment, predictable spacing, and clear, repeatable shapes. The slant introduces a subtle sense of speed while maintaining a functional, systems-oriented look.
The italic angle is applied consistently across cases, and the fixed-width spacing emphasizes alignment and tabular structure. The design avoids ornamental details, relying on clear silhouettes and straightforward terminals for recognition.
