A slanted geometric sans with squared-off curves and rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) construction throughout. Strokes are smooth and fairly even, with minimal modulation, and terminals tend to end in crisp, flat cuts rather than tapered joins. Many counters and bowls read as rounded rectangles, giving letters a compact, engineered feel; diagonals are clean and stable, and the overall rhythm is tight and forward-leaning. Figures follow the same geometry, with rounded-square shapes and consistent stroke behavior across the set.
Best suited to display-forward applications such as branding, headlines, posters, and motion or sports graphics where the slant and squared curves can convey speed and modernity. It can also work for short UI labels or product/vehicle markings when a technical, engineered voice is desired, while longer text may benefit from generous sizing and spacing.
The combination of an oblique stance and rounded-rectangular forms creates a fast, contemporary tone that feels technical and performance-oriented. It suggests modern interfaces, transportation, and sport branding—confident, streamlined, and slightly sci‑fi without becoming decorative.
The design appears intended to merge an italicized sense of motion with a coherent rounded-rectangle geometry, producing a clean, futuristic sans for modern display use. The consistent corner radii and flat terminals suggest a system-led approach aimed at recognizable, high-impact typography.
Round letters (like O/Q and 0) are notably squarish, which helps maintain consistency with straight-sided glyphs and reinforces the systemized, industrial geometry. The lowercase maintains a clean, simplified structure with single-storey forms where applicable, prioritizing clarity and speed over calligraphic nuance.
