A monoline, slanted design built from short dashed segments that read like a dotted plotter trace. Strokes maintain a consistent thickness and spacing, with rounded terminals and frequent breaks that create a perforated outline effect. Uppercase forms are clean and geometric, while lowercase includes a more cursive/italic flavor with looped and angled strokes; curves (C, O, S) are rendered as sequences of small arcs rather than continuous lines. Overall spacing is open and the silhouette stays light, with small gaps and counters remaining clearly defined at display sizes.
Best suited to short text where the dashed texture can be appreciated—headlines, posters, labels, and feature callouts. It can also work for tech-themed UI moments, diagrams, or packaging accents, especially where a plotted or perforated aesthetic supports the concept. For long passages or small sizes, the broken strokes may reduce readability compared with continuous-line italics.
The broken, dotted construction gives the face a technical and schematic tone, like labeling from instrumentation, patterns, or templated drafting. Its airy rhythm and perforated edges feel delicate and slightly experimental, combining a retro digital sensibility with a hand-marked, plotted quality.
The design appears intended to translate an italic skeleton into a quantized, dashed rendering, emphasizing texture and rhythm as much as letterform. By keeping forms simple and monoline while interrupting strokes regularly, it aims for a lightweight, technical look that stands apart from conventional outline or solid styles.
The dash pattern is consistent across straight and curved strokes, producing a steady texture that becomes a key part of the voice. Numerals follow the same segmented logic, favoring clarity over ornament, and the italic slant adds motion without increasing stroke weight.
