A compact, oblique sans with a tightly drawn, forward-leaning stance and consistently rounded-rectangle construction. Curves read as squared-off superellipses with softened corners, producing boxy bowls and counters in letters like O, D, P, and a. Strokes are uniform and streamlined, with crisp joins and clipped terminals that keep forms clean at narrow widths. The lowercase is compact with short extenders relative to the tall x-height, and overall spacing feels efficient, supporting dense setting while preserving clear letter shapes.
Best suited to short-to-medium setting where impact and pace matter: headlines, posters, athletic or automotive graphics, and bold branding. It also fits product labeling and interface-style readouts where narrow letterforms help conserve horizontal space while keeping a technical, modern voice.
The design projects speed and precision, with a motorsport and sci‑fi edge driven by its slant, compression, and squared curvature. Its tone is energetic and assertive rather than friendly, suggesting performance, technology, and motion.
The font appears designed to deliver a fast, contemporary look through condensed proportions, an oblique angle, and superellipse-based geometry. Its consistent stroke treatment and squared curves aim for a sleek, engineered aesthetic that stays legible in compact, high-energy typography.
Uppercase forms maintain a strong geometric rhythm, while lowercase adds slight softness through rounded corners and compact bowls. Numerals follow the same squared, engineered logic with tight, upright structure and consistent internal shapes, helping them sit evenly in runs and UI-like readouts.
