A monolinear, condensed oblique sans with rounded-rectangle construction in curves and bowls. The strokes stay even and delicate, with tight interior counters and tall, slim proportions that create a steady vertical rhythm. Curved letters (C, O, Q, e, o) read as softly squared superellipses, while diagonals (A, V, W, X, Y) are straight and crisp; joins and terminals are clean, with minimal modulation. Numerals mirror the same narrow, upright-to-oblique structure, keeping a consistent, understated texture in running text.
Well-suited to editorial headlines and subheads where a slim, angled voice can add pace without heaviness. It can also work for UI labels, navigation, and compact branding applications that benefit from a clean, condensed texture and a controlled geometric feel.
The overall tone feels modern and lightweight, with a calm, technical refinement rather than expressive warmth. Its oblique stance adds motion and a subtle editorial flair, while the restrained geometry keeps it disciplined and neutral.
The design appears intended to provide a sleek, space-saving oblique sans that remains highly consistent and understated. Its superelliptical curves and even stroke weight suggest a focus on contemporary clarity and a recognizable geometric signature.
Spacing appears relatively tight for such a slim design, reinforcing a compact, efficient footprint. The rounded geometry is most noticeable in the more closed forms, giving the font a distinctive “softly squared” silhouette without becoming playful.
