A heavy, oblique sans with a squared-superellipse construction: most curves resolve into rounded rectangles, producing boxy bowls and counters with softened corners. Strokes are thick and uniform, with tight apertures and compact internal spaces that emphasize mass and solidity. Terminals are mostly blunt and squared-off, and the slant gives letters a forward-leaning, streamlined rhythm. Proportions read broad and stable, with short extenders and sturdy, slightly condensed counters that keep the texture dense in paragraph settings.
Best suited to headlines, short statements, and branding where impact and speed are desired—such as sports identities, gaming or esports graphics, tech packaging, and attention-grabbing posters. It can work for UI titling or display text, but the dense counters and tight apertures make it less ideal for long passages at small sizes.
The overall tone is fast, muscular, and modern, evoking motorsport graphics, sci‑fi interfaces, and rugged product branding. Its rounded-square geometry keeps it approachable while still feeling engineered and assertive.
The design appears intended to deliver a forward-leaning, high-impact display voice built from rounded-rectangular forms, prioritizing a cohesive, engineered silhouette and strong presence over delicate detail.
Distinctive rectangular counters in letters like O/Q and the numerals reinforce a strong, modular system, while the pronounced slant adds motion without becoming cursive. The bold joins and tight openings suggest it is most confident at larger sizes where interior clarity is maximized.
