A slanted sans with squared, superelliptic construction: bowls and counters read as rounded rectangles, with consistently softened corners and mostly monolinear strokes that taper into wedge-like terminals. The forms lean forward with a steady oblique angle, and many joins are tightened and slightly pinched, giving letters a compact, engineered feel. Curves are minimized in favor of chamfered bends and flattened arcs; round letters like O/Q are boxy-oval, while diagonals (A, V, W, X) are sharp and clean. Figures follow the same squared geometry, with open, track-like shapes and distinct, squared off apertures.
Best suited for headlines, logotypes, packaging callouts, and UI/tech or sports-themed graphics where a sleek, forward-leaning voice is desirable. It can work for short paragraphs or captions when generous spacing and size are used, but it reads most confidently as a display face.
The overall tone is fast, modern, and precision-driven, suggesting motion and performance. Its squared rounding and forward slant evoke automotive, sci‑fi, and sports branding cues while staying clean and legible at display sizes.
The design appears intended to blend an italic, speed-oriented silhouette with rounded-rectangle letterforms for a contemporary, industrial look. The consistent corner rounding and squared counters prioritize a cohesive, engineered aesthetic that stands out in branding and titling.
The rhythm favors horizontal and vertical stability with a consistent corner radius across glyphs, which creates a cohesive, modular texture in words. The italic angle is strong enough to signal emphasis, so longer passages feel energetic and slightly compressed.
