A slanted, geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle and superellipse forms, with smooth corners and crisp, straight terminals. Strokes are heavy and even, producing a solid silhouette and clear, uniform color in lines of text. Counters tend toward squarish ovals, and curves are tightened into controlled radii rather than fully circular bowls, giving letters a slightly condensed, engineered feel. Uppercase forms are broad and stable, while lowercase maintains a clean, modern construction with single-story shapes (notably the a and g) and simplified joins.
Best suited to display settings where impact and motion matter: brand marks, product naming, posters, and promotional graphics. The sturdy construction and open shapes also make it viable for short UI labels, dashboards, and packaging callouts, particularly in tech or athletic contexts.
The overall tone is fast, modern, and assertive, combining a performance-oriented slant with softened corners that keep it approachable. It reads as contemporary and technical, with a subtle sci‑fi/sport influence rather than a neutral corporate voice.
The design appears intended to merge bold, high-visibility signage qualities with a streamlined, modern geometry. By pairing an oblique stance with rounded-square forms and minimal detailing, it aims for a distinctive, contemporary voice that stays clean under tight spacing and at large sizes.
The italic angle and squared-round geometry create a strong forward motion, especially in diagonals (V/W/X/Y) and in the rounded-rect bowls (O/Q/0/8). Numerals follow the same superelliptical logic, keeping a consistent rhythm and visual system across letters and figures.
