A heavy, oblique sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softly squared curves. Strokes are sturdy and consistent, with tight apertures and compact interior counters that keep the texture dense at display sizes. Terminals are clean and blunt, and many curves resolve into superellipse-like corners rather than perfect circles, giving bowls and shoulders a controlled, engineered feel. The lowercase is compact with a sturdy single-storey ‘a’, a plain ‘g’, and short, utilitarian joins; figures follow the same squared-round logic for strong, uniform color.
Well-suited to branding and display work that benefits from speed and solidity—sports identities, tech-facing marketing, product marks, and punchy poster headlines. It can also work for short UI labels or navigation when a compact, high-impact oblique sans is desired, provided sizes are generous for counter clarity.
The slanted stance and robust forms create a sense of motion and confidence, with a contemporary, performance-oriented tone. Its rounded geometry reads technical and industrial rather than friendly, projecting efficiency and impact.
The design appears intended to merge aerodynamic italic momentum with a controlled, superellipse geometry, delivering a compact, high-impact voice for contemporary branding. It prioritizes a strong silhouette and consistent texture over open, text-centric readability.
Overall rhythm is forward-leaning and punchy, with letterforms designed to hold their shape under bold setting and quick scanning. The closed counters and squared curves suggest it will feel strongest in short lines and large sizes where the geometry can be appreciated.
