A streamlined geometric sans with squarish, superellipse-like bowls and consistently rounded corners. Strokes are uniform and low-contrast, with an oblique slant and a forward-leaning stance that increases the sense of speed. Counters tend to be rounded-rectangular rather than circular, and many terminals finish with angled cuts or softened corners, producing a clean, machined rhythm. Numerals and capitals share the same tightened, aerodynamic construction, with generally open apertures and compact joins that keep shapes crisp at display sizes.
Best suited to display applications where its speed-driven silhouette can be appreciated: headlines, posters, packaging, and branding systems that want a tech or motorsport flavor. It also works well for logotypes and short UI labels in futuristic or performance-oriented themes, especially at medium to large sizes.
The overall tone is fast, technical, and contemporary—evoking motorsport graphics, sci‑fi interfaces, and performance branding. Its rounded-square geometry feels industrial yet friendly, while the slant adds urgency and motion.
The design intent appears to be a modern, kinetic sans that merges rounded-rect geometry with a forward slant to signal motion and efficiency. Its controlled curves and angled details suggest an emphasis on a sleek, engineered look that remains approachable through softened corners.
The typeface maintains strong visual consistency across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, with a distinctive squared curvature that reads like “rounded rectangles” throughout. The oblique angle and angular cut-ins create a lively texture in lines of text, favoring punchy headlines over long-form reading.
