A compact, forward-leaning sans with a tight, condensed stance and consistent stroke thickness. Letterforms are built from squared curves and rounded-rectangle geometry, producing superellipse-like bowls and corners rather than fully circular rounds. Terminals are blunt and clean, counters are compact, and curves transition with smooth, controlled radii, giving the design a sturdy, engineered rhythm. Numerals and caps share the same angular-round vocabulary, keeping the set visually uniform and punchy at display sizes.
Best suited to short to medium-length display settings where speed and impact matter—team and event branding, racing or athletic graphics, product marks, and bold editorial headlines. It can also work for UI labels and signage when set large enough to preserve clarity in the tighter counters and apertures.
The overall tone is energetic and performance-oriented, with a sleek, technical feel. Its oblique posture and condensed proportions read as fast and purposeful, suggesting motorsport, athletics, and modern machinery. The rounded-square shaping adds a retro-futuristic edge—familiar and functional, but with a distinctive, stylized silhouette.
The font appears designed to deliver a fast, contemporary display voice by combining condensed proportions with rounded-rectangular geometry and an oblique slant. Its consistent stroke and compact counters prioritize bold presence and a unified, engineered aesthetic across letters and numbers.
The design favors closed apertures and small internal counters, which amplifies impact and creates strong word shapes, especially in all caps. The consistent, geometric construction gives it a modular look that stays cohesive across mixed-case and numerals.
