A highly slanted, ultra-thin display sans built from rounded-rectangle (superelliptic) geometry. Strokes are dominated by hairline diagonals and verticals with frequent open joins and strategic cut-ins, producing a crisp, engineered rhythm. Counters tend toward squarish ovals with softened corners, and terminals often end in short, flat or gently curved caps rather than flares. The overall texture is airy and fast, with tight internal spacing and a consistent forward-leaning cadence across letters and figures.
Best suited to large-size settings where its hairline strokes and cut-in details can stay intact—headline typography, poster titles, logotypes, product branding, and tech or automotive-themed graphics. It can also work for short UI labels or section headers in high-resolution contexts, especially when paired with a sturdier text face for body copy.
The typeface reads as futuristic and technical, with an aerodynamic, motorsport-like energy. Its hairline construction and sculpted openings feel precise and instrument-driven, suggesting speed, efficiency, and modernity rather than warmth or nostalgia.
The design appears intended to deliver a distinctive, speed-forward display voice using superelliptic construction and purposeful stroke interruptions to create a sense of engineered motion. Its consistent slant, rounded-rectangle counters, and minimal terminals aim for a modern, high-tech identity while retaining clear, repeatable shapes.
Distinctive notched and segmented strokes (notably in forms like S, G, and some numerals) add a constructed, modular feel, while rounded corners prevent the design from becoming harsh. Numerals follow the same superelliptic logic and maintain strong stylistic cohesion with the uppercase, reinforcing a streamlined, display-oriented voice.
