A heavy, oblique sans with broad, squared-off proportions and generously rounded corners that push many counters toward superellipse-like rectangles. Strokes are consistently thick with clean, crisp terminals and little to no modulation, creating a dense, high-impact texture. Curves are tightened into rounded-rectangle forms (notably in O/Q/0/8/9 and the bowls of b/d/p/q), while diagonals and joins (V/W/X/Y/K) stay sharp and decisive. Spacing reads on the tight side, and several letters use compact apertures and enclosed counters, reinforcing a solid, blocky silhouette.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as sports branding, team marks, esports visuals, event posters, product packaging, and punchy digital headlines. The dense shapes and compact openings make it more effective at larger sizes where its engineered curves and distinctive counters can read clearly.
The overall tone is fast, forceful, and contemporary, with a streamlined “performance” feel reminiscent of motorsport and tech branding. Its rounded-square geometry adds a controlled, engineered character, keeping the style modern rather than aggressive in a rough or distressed way.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, speed-forward display voice by combining a strong oblique stance with rounded-rectangle construction. Its consistent thickness and tightly controlled curves prioritize impact, cohesion, and a distinctive “performance” silhouette over quiet text neutrality.
The Q shows a distinctive, angular tail, and the numerals lean toward sleek, stylized forms with strong horizontals and rounded-rectangle counters. The oblique angle is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, producing a forward-leaning rhythm suited to motion-oriented messaging.
