A heavy, forward-slanted sans with compact counters and broadly rounded corners. Strokes are thick and consistent, with softened terminals and frequent chamfered/ink-trap-like notches that create a cut-in, pseudo-stencil feel. The letterforms lean on squarish geometry (notably in O, D, and numerals) while maintaining smooth curvature at joins; apertures are generally tight and the overall texture is dense. Uppercase and lowercase share a cohesive, engineered rhythm, with distinctive constructions in forms like M/W and the angular-yet-rounded S and Z.
Best suited to display contexts where impact and motion are priorities: headlines, posters, esports or sports branding, packaging callouts, and tech-themed marketing. It can also work for short UI labels or scoreboards when set with generous spacing and sufficient size.
The overall tone is fast and energetic, suggesting speed, motion, and modern machinery. Its rounded edges keep the voice friendly rather than aggressive, while the cut-in details add a technical, game-like flair.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, high-velocity look with a softened, approachable finish. The combination of rounded corners and carved-in details suggests a contemporary techno aesthetic optimized for attention-grabbing titles and brand marks.
At larger sizes the internal cutouts and notches become a defining graphic feature, while at smaller sizes the tight apertures and dense weight may reduce clarity. Numerals follow the same rounded, squared-off logic and feel consistent with the caps, making the set well-suited to number-forward design.
