A heavy, extended sans with monoline strokes and rounded-corner construction throughout. Forms are built from broad geometric curves and straight segments, with frequent horizontal rounding and softened terminals that keep the texture smooth despite the weight. Counters tend to be open and simplified, and several glyphs show deliberate notches and cut-ins (notably in curves and at joins) that create a slightly segmented, engineered feel. The overall rhythm is wide and stable, with strong horizontal emphasis and clean, consistent stroke behavior across letters and numerals.
Best suited to headlines, short copy, and logo or wordmark work where its wide stance and engineered details can read clearly. It also fits packaging, esports/sports branding, and tech-themed interfaces or dashboards, especially for section titles and prominent labels.
The tone feels modern and machine-made—confident, fast, and slightly sci‑fi. Its rounded geometry and controlled cut-ins suggest technology, performance, and contemporary product design rather than a neutral corporate voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, contemporary display voice with a futuristic/industrial edge while staying legible through clean geometry and consistent stroke weight. Its extended proportions and signature notches aim to differentiate branding and titling without relying on ornamental flourishes.
Distinctive details include the single-storey lowercase forms, a compact, low-contrast texture in text, and numerals with the same rounded, streamlined logic as the letters. The cut-in motifs add character at display sizes but can read as decorative breaks when set tightly or small.
