An oblique, rounded sans with an outline-only construction and a consistent inline offset that reads like a built-in drop shadow. Letterforms are wide and slightly squared-off with softened corners, producing a smooth, aerodynamic silhouette. Strokes appear as single contours with generous counters and open apertures, and the interior “shadow” contour adds depth while keeping the overall color light. The italic slant is steady across caps, lowercase, and numerals, and terminals tend to be blunt rather than tapered, reinforcing a geometric, engineered feel.
Best suited to display typography such as logos, team or event branding, posters, and punchy headlines where the outline and built-in depth can be appreciated. It can also work for short UI labels or packaging callouts when used at sizes large enough to preserve the inner contour separation.
The style projects speed and energy, combining a sporty wordmark attitude with a retro-tech edge. The outlined build and shadowed interior give it a display-first presence that feels playful and attention-grabbing rather than formal or editorial.
The design appears intended to deliver an instantly recognizable, motion-forward look by pairing an italicized geometric skeleton with an outline-and-shadow construction. It prioritizes impact and stylized dimensionality over dense text readability.
The inline shadow effect is most legible at larger sizes, where the layered contour reads clearly as dimension rather than noise. The numerals share the same rounded, forward-leaning geometry, making the set feel cohesive for headline treatments and graphic lockups.
