A slanted sans with a superelliptical construction: curves resolve into rounded-rectangle corners and flattened arcs rather than true circles. Strokes are clean and even with subtly varied curvature, producing crisp joins and tidy terminals. Proportions skew slightly condensed with tall capitals and a controlled, modest x-height, while counters stay compact and apertures remain relatively tight. The rhythm is brisk and forward-leaning, with consistent rounding across bowls and shoulders that keeps the texture smooth in lines of text.
Well suited for technology and automotive-style branding, sports or motion-oriented graphics, and concise editorial headlines where a sense of speed is desirable. It also works effectively for UI labels, dashboards, and packaging callouts where clean forms and consistent rounding help maintain clarity at smaller sizes.
The overall tone feels modern and performance-oriented, combining a refined, engineered polish with a fast, directional slant. Its rounded geometry softens the voice just enough to avoid harshness, but it still reads as purposeful and contemporary.
The design appears intended to merge a geometric, rounded-rectangle skeleton with an assertive italic posture, creating a contemporary sans that signals motion and modernity while keeping a controlled, highly consistent silhouette.
Numbers and caps maintain the same rounded-corner logic, giving a cohesive, system-like feel across alphanumerics. The italic angle is pronounced enough to be expressive in headlines while remaining disciplined and legible in short blocks of copy.
