A heavy, extended oblique sans with a soft-rectangular geometry and pronounced rounding at corners and terminals. Letterforms lean forward with a steady, engineered rhythm, using broad strokes interrupted by crisp horizontal cut-ins and counters that read like vents or slots. Curves are compact and squared-off, producing boxy bowls (notably in O/D/P) and a streamlined, low-detail construction. Spacing is relatively tight and the black density is high, creating a continuous, fast-moving texture across words.
Best suited to display settings where impact and speed are priorities: headlines, posters, event graphics, game titles, and brand marks that want a sleek racing/tech feel. It can also work for short UI labels or product badging when generous size and contrast against the background are available.
The overall tone is fast, modern, and performance-oriented, evoking motorsport graphics, sci‑fi interfaces, and arcade-era techno styling. The forward slant and “slotted” interior shapes add a sense of motion and mechanical precision, while the rounded edges keep it from feeling harsh or industrially cold.
The font appears designed to deliver a high-energy, futuristic voice through forward-leaning proportions, extended widths, and distinctive horizontal cutouts that create a “machined” signature. Its construction prioritizes strong silhouette and thematic consistency over neutral readability, making it ideal for expressive branding and display typography.
The design leans on repeated horizontal apertures and cut terminals as a unifying motif, which boosts recognizability in short bursts but can reduce clarity in longer passages. Numerals follow the same streamlined, squared vocabulary, keeping headlines and UI-style labels visually consistent.
