This typeface is a rounded, geometric sans with a pronounced forward slant and a superellipse construction that favors rounded-rectangle bowls and softly squared corners. Strokes are even and monolinear, with smooth joins and frequent use of horizontal terminals that end in rounded caps. Counters tend to be rectangular and open, giving letters a clean, engineered feel; curves are minimized in favor of controlled radii and flattened arcs. The overall footprint is expansive with generous internal space, and several glyphs show stylized simplification (for example, the single-storey forms and the squared, inset counters in many round letters). Numerals follow the same rounded-rect geometry, with a distinctive squared “0” featuring an inner dot and angular, segmented “2/3” forms.
Best suited to display settings where its geometric, italic energy can be felt—headlines, logos, product branding, esports or motorsport graphics, and interface labels for dashboards or futuristic UI themes. It can work for short bursts of text and callouts, especially where a clean, technical voice is desired and generous spacing is available.
The font reads as futuristic and performance-oriented, combining a tech-interface crispness with friendly rounding. Its italic posture and wide stance create momentum and a sense of speed, while the superelliptical shapes evoke industrial design, sci‑fi branding, and digital instrumentation. The tone is confident and modern rather than playful or calligraphic.
The design appears aimed at delivering a streamlined, tech-forward sans that uses superellipse geometry to feel both engineered and approachable. By combining monoline strokes, rounded-rectangle counters, and a consistent italic slant, it prioritizes a fast, modern silhouette that stands out in branding and display contexts.
The rhythm is driven by repeated rounded-rectangle motifs across bowls (O, D, Q, 0) and by consistent corner radii that unify diagonals and horizontals. Apertures stay fairly open, and the italic slant is steady across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, helping long lines of text maintain a cohesive forward flow.
