This typeface is a slanted geometric sans with rounded-rectangle construction and consistently softened corners. Strokes are heavy and even, with low contrast and a smooth, monoline feel. Curves and bowls read as superellipses rather than perfect circles, and terminals tend to be blunt or gently rounded, giving forms a compact, engineered look. Proportions feel slightly condensed in the curves with a steady rhythm in text, while diagonals (notably in V, W, X, Y, and Z) are sharp and forward-leaning, reinforcing speed and direction.
It works best for short-to-medium display settings where speed and modernity are desired—sports identities, automotive or tech branding, product marks, posters, and packaging. In editorial or UI contexts it can function for emphasis, callouts, and section headers where a strong, forward-leaning voice is appropriate.
The overall tone is fast, modern, and performance-oriented, with a contemporary techno flavor. Its rounded geometry keeps it approachable, while the oblique stance and sturdy strokes add a confident, energetic voice that suggests motion and momentum.
The design appears intended to combine geometric, superelliptic construction with a pronounced oblique stance to communicate motion while maintaining a friendly, contemporary softness through rounded corners. The sturdy, even strokes prioritize visual impact and clarity at display sizes.
The italic angle is prominent and consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals, producing a continuous rightward flow in longer passages. Numerals follow the same rounded-rect geometry, with clear, open counters and sturdy silhouettes that pair well with the letterforms.
