A very thin, oblique slab-serif design with crisp, unbracketed serifs and a strongly angular construction. Strokes stay close to monoline, with squared terminals, chamfer-like corners, and a subtly “drawn on a grid” feel that produces faceted curves and polygonal counters. Proportions run generous in width with extended horizontals and a slightly open, airy rhythm; spacing appears steady and the forms keep a consistent right-leaning momentum across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to display settings where its thin strokes and angular details can remain clear—headlines, posters, logos, titles, and branding systems with a technical or retro-industrial voice. It can work for short bursts of text at larger sizes, where the faceted geometry and slab accents become a deliberate stylistic feature.
The overall tone reads technical and retro, like lettering from instrument panels, engineering diagrams, or early digital interfaces. Its sharp geometry and italic slant add speed and precision, while the slab details keep it assertive and mechanically grounded rather than calligraphic.
The design intent appears to be a stylized, engineered italic slab that prioritizes geometric consistency and a crisp, schematic aesthetic. By simplifying curves into angled segments and keeping stroke contrast minimal, it aims for a distinctive, machine-made character with strong visual identity.
Capitals show squared bowls and corners (notably in C, G, O, Q), reinforcing the constructed look, while lowercase maintains the same hard-edged logic with compact, straight-sided arches. Numerals follow the same faceted approach, producing distinctive, slightly boxy silhouettes that stay consistent with the alphabet.
