A rounded, geometric sans built from superelliptic shapes and softened corners, with a pronounced rightward slant. Strokes are heavy and uniform, with minimal contrast and consistently rounded terminals that keep the silhouette smooth. Many counters and bowls read as rounded rectangles, and curves transition into straighter segments rather than fully circular arcs. The letterforms feel horizontally extended, with open apertures and simplified joins that emphasize clean, continuous motion.
Best suited for short, prominent text such as headlines, product names, esports or automotive branding, packaging, and poster work. It also works well for UI-style titles, splash screens, and tech-themed graphics where a sleek, engineered voice is desired; for long reading, its strong slant and wide stance are more effective in larger sizes and shorter lines.
The overall tone is futuristic and performance-oriented, evoking motorsport, sci‑fi interfaces, and tech branding. Its slanted stance and rounded-rect geometry create a sense of speed and engineered precision while staying friendly rather than sharp or aggressive.
The design appears aimed at a contemporary, high-tech display sans that balances speed and approachability. By combining superelliptic construction, rounded corners, and a built-in italic rhythm, it targets applications where a modern, streamlined identity is more important than traditional text neutrality.
The italic construction is integral to the design, not a simple oblique, and the shapes maintain consistent corner radii across uppercase, lowercase, and figures. Numerals follow the same rounded, streamlined logic, with clear, blocky forms suited to display sizes.
