A slanted geometric sans with monolinear strokes and rounded-rectangle (superellipse) construction throughout. Corners are heavily softened while terminals are mostly squared off, creating a crisp, engineered silhouette. Counters tend toward rectangular and open, with wide proportions and generous internal space that keep the heavy forms from clogging. The rhythm is forward-leaning and fast, with frequent horizontal shears and chamfer-like joins that emphasize motion and directionality.
Best suited to display work where impact and motion matter: headlines, posters, brand marks, product naming, esports or gaming graphics, and sporty packaging. It also fits UI-style titles and dashboard-like labeling where a futuristic, engineered voice is desired, especially at medium to large sizes.
The overall tone feels fast, technical, and performance-oriented—closer to motorsport and sci‑fi interface graphics than to editorial typography. Its wide, aerodynamic letterforms read assertive and modern, projecting speed and precision.
The design intent appears to be a streamlined, high-speed sans that blends soft-cornered geometry with aggressive slant for a contemporary tech/sport aesthetic. The consistent rounded-rectangle skeleton suggests a system-driven approach aimed at strong branding presence and clear, bold silhouettes in short text.
Uppercase forms keep a compact, squared geometry (notably in O/Q/C/G), while diagonals (K/V/W/X/Y) are sharp and decisive, reinforcing the italic momentum. Numerals follow the same rounded-rect logic with simplified, display-friendly shapes and a consistent forward slant, making them visually cohesive in signage or UI-like treatments.
