A slanted sans with a squared, superelliptical construction: bowls and counters read as rounded rectangles, and curves resolve into softened corners rather than true circles. Strokes are predominantly even with modest contrast, producing a clean, mechanical rhythm. Terminals are mostly cut on an angle, reinforcing forward motion, while the overall spacing stays tight and controlled for a compact, streamlined texture. Numerals and caps follow the same squarish geometry, keeping the set visually consistent and engineered.
Best suited to display contexts where its forward-leaning energy and squared-round shapes can be read at a glance—headlines, product branding, sports or automotive graphics, and technology-themed posters. It can also work for short UI labels or interface callouts when you want a sleek, modern voice, while longer text will benefit from generous sizing and spacing.
The italic stance and angular cuts give the face a fast, aerodynamic tone that feels contemporary and technology-oriented. Its rounded-rectangle skeleton softens the severity, balancing precision with approachability. Overall it suggests motion, efficiency, and a modern industrial sensibility.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, speed-inflected sans with a distinctive superelliptical geometry—combining technical clarity with a unique, rounded-rectangular personality for contemporary branding and display work.
Round letters (like O/0-style forms) are noticeably squarish, and diagonals and joins are drawn with a deliberate, slightly calligraphic slant rather than pure geometric shear. The design maintains a consistent ‘capsule’ motif across letters and figures, creating a cohesive, logo-friendly silhouette.
