A heavy, squared sans built from rounded-rectangle forms with softened corners and large, uniform strokes. Curves are minimized in favor of superelliptic bowls and boxy rounds, producing compact counters and a tightly controlled interior space. Several glyphs feature purposeful notches and cut-ins (notably in S, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9), adding a mechanical, segmented feel. The overall rhythm is wide and stable, with simple, slab-like terminals and consistent stroke endings that keep silhouettes clean at display sizes.
Best suited for headlines, poster typography, and identity work where strong silhouettes and a compact, high-impact texture are desirable. It also fits interface labels in games or tech-themed layouts, and bold sports or esports branding where geometric firmness and clarity at larger sizes are key.
The tone is bold and engineered, with a clear tech and motorsport energy. Its geometric squareness and deliberate cut details read as futuristic and utilitarian, leaning toward game UI and sci‑fi titling rather than neutral text typography.
The design appears aimed at delivering a high-impact geometric voice: wide, squared letterforms with rounded corners for friendliness, paired with strategic cut-ins to evoke machinery and speed. It prioritizes strong recognition and a cohesive display texture over subtlety or long-form reading comfort.
Diagonal letters (V, W, X, Y, Z) are built from broad wedge strokes that keep the stance aggressive and directional. The numeral set is especially distinctive, with angular geometry and inset breaks that give a digital, instrument-panel flavor. Lowercase remains blocky and sturdy, with simplified forms that prioritize uniform texture over calligraphic nuance.
