A slanted sans with a squared, superellipse-driven construction: rounds are flattened into rounded-rectangle bowls and counters, and corners resolve into consistent radiused turns. Strokes are heavy and uniform with minimal contrast, and many joins use crisp angles that keep the texture taut despite the soft corners. Proportions feel expanded and stable, with generous horizontal presence and open counters in letters like C, D, O, and e. Terminals are mostly blunt and engineered, producing a clean, modular rhythm across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Works best for short to medium-length display settings where its forward slant and squared-round forms can project energy—such as headlines, brand marks, product names, and promotional graphics. It also fits interface accents, dashboards, and gaming or motorsport-themed visuals where a streamlined, technical flavor is desirable.
The overall tone is modern and kinetic, suggesting speed, precision, and engineered efficiency. Its rounded-square geometry reads as contemporary and tech-forward, while the strong slant adds a sporty, motion-oriented voice. The bold, steady color gives it a confident, no-nonsense attitude suited to performance messaging.
Likely designed to merge geometric, rounded-square forms with an energetic oblique stance, delivering a contemporary display sans that feels engineered and fast. The consistent corner radii and low-contrast strokes suggest an emphasis on cohesive silhouette and high-impact readability at larger sizes.
Distinctive numerals and bowls lean into rounded-rectangle shapes, and the oblique angle is consistent across the set, helping lines of text maintain a fast, forward-leaning flow. The glyphs balance soft radii with sharp interior corners, creating a hybrid of friendly rounding and technical firmness.
