A slanted sans with a superelliptic construction: rounded-rectangle bowls, softened corners, and largely monoline strokes. Terminals are predominantly sheared and flat, reinforcing a forward-leaning, engineered feel. Counters tend to be squarish rather than circular, and curves transition with a faceted, geometric rhythm. The lowercase is compact and steady, with short, functional joins and a consistent italic angle across letters and numerals.
Best suited for headlines and short, high-impact text where its italic slant and superelliptic shapes can read as speed and modernity. It fits well in branding for technology, automotive, gaming, or sports contexts, and works effectively for posters, packaging, and UI accents where a futuristic, engineered tone is desired.
The overall tone is fast, modern, and technical, with a motorsport or sci‑fi interface flavor. Its squared curves and angled cuts suggest precision and efficiency rather than warmth or calligraphy.
The design appears intended to blend the neutrality of a sans with a distinct geometric signature: superellipse-based curves, clipped terminals, and a consistent forward slant to communicate motion and precision. The goal seems to be a cohesive, contemporary voice that stands out in display sizes while remaining clean and systematic.
Distinctive, squared bowls show up strongly in characters like C, O, Q, and 0, while diagonal strokes (V, W, Y, X) add sharp momentum. The numerals follow the same rounded-rectangle logic, keeping a cohesive, display-oriented personality.
