A compact, forward-leaning sans with chunky strokes and rounded-rectangle geometry throughout. Curves resolve into softened corners rather than true circles, giving counters and bowls a squarish, superelliptical feel. Terminals are mostly blunt and rounded, with smooth joins and a consistent, engineered rhythm. The uppercase has a wide, slightly extended stance relative to height, while the lowercase keeps a steady x-height and simplified forms; numerals follow the same rounded-rect silhouette for a cohesive alphanumeric texture.
Well-suited to bold headlines, logotypes, and short bursts of copy where a fast, modern presence is desired. It works particularly well for sports and automotive branding, tech-forward packaging, posters, and UI accents where compact, high-impact letterforms help conserve space while maintaining strong identity.
The overall tone is energetic and streamlined, with a sporty, motion-oriented slant and a slightly futuristic, industrial edge. Its softened corners keep it friendly, while the heavy, compact shapes project confidence and impact.
Likely designed to combine the immediacy of an oblique display sans with a distinctive rounded-rectangle construction, prioritizing punchy silhouette, compact rhythm, and a cohesive alphanumeric system for branding-led typography.
In text, the tight internal spaces and squared counters create a dense, uniform color that reads best at larger sizes or with generous tracking. The oblique construction and angular-to-rounded transitions emphasize speed and direction, and the digit set mirrors the letterforms closely for consistent headline numerics.
