A heavy, slanted sans with compact proportions and rounded-rectangle construction in the curves. Terminals are blunt and clean, with minimal modulation and broadly consistent stroke weight. Counters are tight and rectangular-oval, giving letters like O, Q, and e a squarish, engineered feel. The lowercase is sturdy and functional, with short extenders and simplified joins; the overall rhythm is dense and forward-leaning, optimized for strong silhouette and impact.
Best suited to short, high-contrast messaging such as headlines, posters, and promotional graphics where a strong, fast impression is needed. It also fits sports branding, esports or motorsport-themed design, punchy packaging callouts, and logo wordmarks that benefit from a compact, forward-leaning stance.
The tone is fast and forceful, with a performance-driven feel that reads as sporty and modern. Its squared-round geometry and aggressive slant add urgency and confidence, evoking motorsport, athletic branding, and bold promotional messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a streamlined, aerodynamic look: bold shapes, tight counters, and a consistent slant that reinforces motion and urgency while keeping a clean, contemporary sans structure.
Numbers are blocky and robust, matching the alphabet’s compact, high-impact shapes; the 0 is rounded-rectangular and the 8 has tight stacked counters. The slant is consistent across cases and figures, and the design relies on strong negative space shaping rather than detail to maintain clarity at display sizes.
