A heavy, oblique serif with a streamlined, squared-off construction and noticeably rounded corners. Strokes are monolinear to low-contrast, with subtle flaring at terminals that reads as restrained, stylized serifs rather than crisp bracketed details. Counters tend to be compact and rectangular, and many joins and terminals are softened, giving the letterforms a machined, molded feel. The rhythm is forward-leaning and energetic, with slightly condensed proportions in places and a consistent, sturdy color across caps, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited to headlines, branding, and short bursts of text where its forward motion and solid weight can carry the layout. It works especially well for sports identities, motorsport or tech-themed posters, packaging callouts, and bold signage where a rounded, industrial serif can stand out.
The overall tone is fast and mechanical, evoking racing graphics, late-20th-century display typography, and utilitarian signage. Its softened corners keep it approachable, while the oblique stance and tight counters add urgency and motion.
The font appears designed to deliver a rugged, high-impact display voice with a sense of speed, combining serif cues with rounded, engineered shapes for a distinctive, contemporary-retro look.
The design emphasizes strong silhouettes and clear word shapes at larger sizes, with distinctive numerals and a compact, squared ‘o’/‘O’ family that reinforces the engineered aesthetic. The italic angle is a primary stylistic driver, so it reads more like a purpose-built display italic than a simple slant.
