A heavy, oblique sans with a squared-round construction: strokes terminate in rounded corners and many curves resolve into rounded-rectangle forms rather than pure circles. The design is largely monoline, with a sturdy, even color and a slightly condensed, forward-leaning stance. Counters tend to be tight and geometric, and diagonals are crisp, giving letters a cut, engineered feel. Numerals and capitals follow the same superelliptical logic, producing a cohesive, blocky rhythm in text.
Best suited to display sizes where its angular superellipse forms and tight counters can read clearly—headlines, logos, packaging, posters, and tech or sport-themed branding. It can also work for short UI labels or badges when ample size and spacing are available, but its dense color and compact interiors make it less ideal for long-form text.
The overall tone is fast and technical, suggesting speed, machinery, and modern interfaces. Its forward slant and compact geometry read as energetic and performance-oriented, while the rounded corners keep it from feeling harsh or brittle.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, speed-forward voice using rounded-rect geometry and an italic stance, balancing toughness with softened corners. It prioritizes a strong silhouette and consistent texture for high-impact titling and identity work.
Distinctive squared bowls and apertures show up across both cases, with recognizable, stylized shapes in letters like G, S, and Q and similarly technical numerals. The italic angle is consistent across the alphabet, and the overall texture remains dense and uniform, especially in uppercase settings.
