A heavy, forward-slanted sans with wide, rounded-rectangle construction and consistently softened corners. Strokes are monolinear and dense, with squarish counters and superellipse-like bowls that keep shapes tight and compact. Many glyphs show small wedge-like notches and cut-ins at joins and terminals, creating a slightly "engineered" feel and improving separation in dense forms. The rhythm is punchy and blocky, with short apertures and sturdy horizontals that read clearly at display sizes.
Best suited for bold display applications where impact and speed are desirable: sports identities, esports teams, automotive or racing-themed graphics, and energetic poster headlines. It also works well for short UI headings or product naming in tech contexts, where its compact, engineered shapes maintain a strong silhouette.
The overall tone is fast and assertive, with a motorsport and sci‑fi edge. Its slant and chunky geometry suggest motion and impact, while the rounded rectangles keep it modern and industrial rather than sharp or calligraphic.
The design appears intended to deliver a high-energy, contemporary sans for branding and titling, emphasizing motion through its consistent slant and adding technical character via notched joins and squared, rounded-rectangle forms.
Uppercase forms lean toward squared bowls and clipped diagonals (notably in letters like S, Z, and X), while the lowercase keeps similarly compact counters and simplified details. Numerals follow the same rounded-rect logic, with a strong, graphic presence and minimal interior space, favoring bold branding over small-size neutrality.
