A condensed oblique sans built from squared-off curves and rounded-rectangle geometry. Strokes are monolinear with clean terminals and consistent curvature, giving counters a compact, superelliptical feel (notably in O, D, 0, 8). The slant is firm and uniform, with tight apertures and restrained joins that keep letters crisp at display sizes. Numerals follow the same rounded-rect construction, producing a cohesive, engineered rhythm across the set.
Well-suited to sports and performance branding, tech-oriented identities, and modern UI or dashboard graphics where a compact, forward-leaning sans adds momentum. It also works effectively for posters, headers, packaging, and short bursts of copy where its squared-rounded forms can act as a recognizable graphic signature.
The overall tone feels fast and technical—sleek, controlled, and slightly futuristic. Its italicized forward motion suggests speed and performance, while the rounded corners soften the voice into something approachable rather than aggressive.
The font appears intended to merge industrial clarity with a contemporary, speed-driven stance, using rounded-rectangle construction to create a distinctive silhouette that remains clean and readable in bold, modern layouts.
The design balances straight segments with rounded corners, creating a distinctive “soft-square” silhouette in both uppercase and lowercase. Narrow proportions and compact counters emphasize verticality and help maintain a consistent texture in all-caps lines and numeric strings.
