A heavy, forward-slanted sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. Curves are built from superelliptical arcs, giving bowls and counters a squarish, engineered feel rather than geometric circles. Strokes stay largely monolinear with firm terminals, and many letters show compact, inset counters that read almost stencil-like at smaller sizes. Proportions are tight with a slightly condensed, aerodynamic rhythm; capitals are tall and uniform, while lowercase maintains a straightforward, utilitarian structure with sturdy stems and minimal detailing.
Best for high-impact display work such as headlines, posters, product branding, and sports or racing-inspired identities. It also fits UI labels and interface headings where a bold, technical voice is needed, provided sizes are generous to preserve the compact counters.
The overall tone is fast, tough, and contemporary—evoking motorsport graphics, tech hardware labeling, and performance branding. The oblique stance and blocky curves create a sense of motion and urgency, while the rounded corners keep it modern rather than harsh.
Designed to deliver a powerful, speed-oriented look using rounded-rectangle geometry and a consistent oblique angle, prioritizing punchy recognition and a cohesive, industrial rhythm across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
The numerals and uppercase forms emphasize squared bowls and rounded internal apertures, producing a consistent “machined” texture in lines of text. In paragraph settings the weight and slant generate strong visual momentum, best suited to short bursts rather than quiet reading.
