A slanted, heavy sans with squared-off round forms and generously radiused corners, giving many letters a rounded-rectangle (superelliptical) skeleton. Strokes are monolinear with a clean, uniform weight and mostly closed or tight apertures, producing dense, solid counters in letters like a, e, and s. Terminals tend to be blunt and softly squared rather than sharp, while diagonals and joins keep a crisp, engineered feel. Proportions run broad and steady, with a sturdy baseline and tabular-feeling numerals that match the letterforms’ squarish curvature.
Best suited to short, high-impact text: headlines, poster typography, sports and esports identity, and bold UI/wayfinding accents where speed and clarity matter. The dense, compact apertures and heavy weight make it especially effective in branding marks, product packaging, and display settings rather than long-form reading.
The overall tone is fast, athletic, and contemporary—like performance branding and equipment labeling—while the rounded corners keep it approachable rather than aggressive. Its oblique stance adds motion and urgency, lending a “go-forward” energy that reads as tech-forward and confident.
The design appears intended to merge geometric, superelliptical construction with an oblique, high-energy stance, creating a robust display sans that feels engineered and contemporary. It aims for strong presence and instant recognizability through consistent rounded-rectangle curves, blunt terminals, and compact internal spaces.
The uppercase shows strong geometric discipline (especially in C, G, O, Q, and D), while the lowercase echoes the same rounded-rectangle logic with compact counters. The numerals are similarly boxy and streamlined, contributing to a cohesive, industrial rhythm across alphanumerics.
