A slanted sans with compact proportions and a geometric, superelliptical construction. Curves resolve into rounded-rectangle forms, giving counters a squared-off feel while keeping corners softened. Strokes are heavy and uniform, with clean terminals and minimal modulation, producing a crisp silhouette. The rhythm is tight and forward-leaning, and the figures and capitals read as sturdy, engineered shapes with consistent rounding and slightly condensed spacing.
Best suited to branding and display settings where a fast, technical voice is desired—sports identities, esports and gaming interfaces, automotive or gear branding, and punchy headlines on posters or packaging. It can also work for short UI labels or navigation where a compact, forward-leaning emphasis is helpful.
The overall tone is energetic and performance-oriented, with a sleek, contemporary edge. Its rounded-square geometry feels technical and purposeful, suggesting speed, efficiency, and a bit of industrial confidence rather than softness or whimsy.
The letterforms appear designed to combine geometric discipline with speed cues: a pronounced slant, compact widths, and rounded-square bowls that maintain a mechanical consistency. The goal is likely a high-impact, contemporary sans that stays coherent in motion-oriented or technology-adjacent design contexts.
The design leans on rounded corners and flattened curves to create a distinctive squircle-like texture across both letters and numerals. The slant is strong enough to read as dynamic in text, while the uniform stroke and simple joins keep the texture steady and legible at display sizes.
