A geometric italic sans with extended proportions and a pronounced rightward slant. Letterforms are built from rounded-rectangle and superellipse shapes, producing squared bowls and counters with soft corners and consistent, smooth curves. Strokes are heavy and fairly even, with minimal modulation and a clean, monoline impression; terminals tend to be rounded or gently sheared to match the oblique angle. Spacing reads open for a wide design, and many characters show purposeful cut-ins and simplified joins that keep shapes compact and legible at display sizes.
This font is best suited to high-impact display roles such as branding, product marks, headlines, posters, and packaging where a fast, technical voice is desired. It also fits interface titles and in-game UI, as well as sports and automotive-themed graphics that benefit from wide, slanted letterforms.
The overall tone is contemporary and forward-leaning, suggesting speed, precision, and engineered efficiency. Its rounded-square geometry feels modern and utilitarian rather than friendly, leaning toward a sci‑fi and performance aesthetic.
The design appears intended to combine bold, extended readability with a streamlined, futuristic geometry. By basing shapes on rounded rectangles and maintaining a consistent oblique rhythm, it aims to communicate speed and modernity while staying clean and systematic.
The italic construction is integral to the design (not merely a slanted roman), with diagonals and curves harmonized to the same oblique rhythm. Numerals share the same rounded-rect logic and wide stance, supporting cohesive display setting across alphanumerics.
