A slanted, extended sans with a rounded-rectangle construction and consistently softened corners. Strokes are monoline and smooth, with curved joins and terminals that often finish in gently squared-off ends rather than sharp points. Counters tend toward superelliptical shapes, giving letters like O, D, and Q a compact, aerodynamic feel, while horizontals and bowls read as slightly flattened and streamlined. The rhythm is assertive and forward-leaning, with open apertures and simplified interior detailing that keeps forms clean at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, logos, and short bursts of text where its slanted, extended shapes can project speed and modernity. It works well for sports and automotive branding, esports and gaming interfaces, tech event graphics, and packaging where a sleek, engineered aesthetic is desired.
The overall tone is contemporary and fast, evoking motorsport, gaming UI, and sci‑fi interfaces. Its rounded geometry keeps the voice friendly and approachable, while the strong slant and extended proportions add urgency and motion.
Likely designed to deliver a futuristic, high-velocity impression using superelliptical geometry and softened corners, balancing an aggressive forward slant with approachable rounded forms for contemporary display typography.
Uppercase and lowercase share the same geometric logic, producing a cohesive system with a distinctly engineered look. Numerals follow the same rounded, segmented feel, and the consistent corner radius across glyphs reinforces the font’s synthetic, modular personality.
