A heavy, extended sans with an oblique slant and broad, rounded bowls. Strokes are uniform and dense, with softened terminals and generous interior counters that keep forms open despite the weight. Uppercase construction is straightforward and geometric, while the lowercase shows single-storey "a" and "g" and a wide, low-arching "m" that reinforces the horizontal, engineered feel. Numerals are large and sturdy, with an elliptical, slashed zero and rounded forms throughout.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and branding where a strong, wide word shape is desirable. It also fits technology, motorsport, and industrial-themed visuals, as well as packaging and signage that benefits from bold, rounded geometry and an energetic slant.
The overall tone is confident and mechanical, with a contemporary, speed-forward energy. Its wide stance and slanted posture suggest motion and performance, while the rounded geometry keeps it approachable rather than severe.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-impact sans for display use, combining wide proportions and an oblique angle to create a sense of speed while maintaining clear, open letterforms.
Across the sample text, spacing and rhythm feel even and consistent, producing a clean, blocky texture at display sizes. The design favors broad silhouettes and strong horizontals, which helps it read as modern and utilitarian.
