A heavy, extended sans with a squared-off, superelliptical construction. Strokes are monoline with generous rounding on corners and terminals, producing a smooth, machined feel rather than sharp geometry. Counters tend toward rounded-rectangle shapes, and many letters lean on straight verticals and broad horizontals; joins are clean and compact, giving the face a dense, blocklike texture. The overall spacing and proportions favor wide letterforms and stable, rectangular silhouettes that hold together strongly in display sizes.
Best suited to headlines and short-form display typography where its wide stance and sturdy shapes can read clearly and create strong impact. It also fits branding and packaging that want a technical or industrial voice, as well as sports, gaming, and interface labeling where bold, squared-round forms reinforce a modern, engineered aesthetic.
The font conveys a contemporary, engineered tone—confident and functional, with a hint of sci‑fi and motorsport signage. Its rounded-square forms feel friendly enough to avoid harshness, but the mass and width keep it commanding and attention grabbing.
The type appears designed to deliver maximum presence with a clean, geometric backbone—pairing rounded-square forms with a compact, monoline build to achieve a modern, utilitarian display voice.
The design language is highly consistent across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, with the same rounded-rectangle logic repeated in bowls and counters. Numerals share the same squared rounding and wide stance, contributing to a cohesive, system-like appearance in mixed alphanumeric settings.
