A slanted geometric sans built from squared, superellipse-like curves and rounded-rectangle counters. Strokes are heavy and even, with softened corners and frequent horizontal shearing that gives the forms a forward-leaning, aerodynamic feel. Proportions are extended and compact in spacing, while the lowercase shows a prominent x-height and simplified, single-storey constructions. Curved letters like C, G, O, and S read as squared rounds, and terminals tend to finish with clean, cut angles rather than tapered ends.
Best suited to bold headlines, logo and wordmark work, product branding, esports/gaming titles, and sports or automotive-themed graphics. It can also work for short UI labels or signage where a fast, technical voice is desired, especially at medium-to-large sizes.
The overall tone is modern and performance-driven, leaning toward a sci‑fi and motorsport aesthetic. Its wide stance and italic slant convey speed, confidence, and engineered precision, making it feel more like a display face than a neutral workhorse.
The font appears designed to deliver a streamlined, futuristic sans with squared-round geometry and a built-in sense of motion. Its extended width, heavy construction, and consistent rounding suggest an emphasis on impactful display typography that reads as engineered and contemporary.
Numerals and uppercase share the same squared-round logic, producing a cohesive, techno rhythm in sequences and headings. The design favors clarity at large sizes, with distinctive silhouettes and open apertures, though the dense, extended forms can feel intense in long passages.
