This typeface is an oblique, monoline sans built from squared-round (superelliptical) contours and chamfer-like corners. Strokes keep a consistent thickness with smooth joins, producing crisp, engineered letterforms. Round characters such as O and 0 read as rounded rectangles, while many terminals are flattened or slightly angled, reinforcing a streamlined rhythm. The overall proportions feel compact and forward-leaning, with open apertures and simplified construction that stays highly uniform across the set.
It suits short-to-medium display settings where a technical, fast-moving voice is desired—such as sports branding, automotive or esports graphics, product marks, and technology-oriented campaigns. It can also work in UI headings, dashboards, and labeling where compact, uniform forms and clear alphanumerics support quick scanning.
The tone is modern and aerodynamic, suggesting speed, precision, and contemporary technology. Its squared-round geometry gives it an industrial, equipment-like flavor, while the slant adds motion and urgency. Overall it feels confident and utilitarian rather than decorative.
The design appears intended to translate geometric superelliptical forms into a practical italic sans, balancing a futuristic silhouette with straightforward legibility. By keeping stroke weight even and shaping curves as rounded rectangles, it aims for a cohesive, engineered look that reads as fast and contemporary across both text samples and isolated glyphs.
Distinctive details include the superelliptical bowls and counters, the squared geometry of curved forms, and a consistent, mechanical handling of curves-to-straights transitions. Numerals follow the same design logic, with rounded-rectangular shapes and clean, restrained modulation that keeps the set cohesive in mixed alphanumerics.
