A forward-leaning geometric sans built from rounded-rectangle and superelliptical forms, with squared counters softened by generous corner radii. Strokes maintain a consistent thickness and terminate in clean, slightly chamfered ends, creating an engineered, modular feel. Wide proportions and open apertures give the alphabet a stretched, horizontal stance, while the overall rhythm stays even and tightly controlled across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals. Curves are minimized in favor of straight segments and soft radiused turns, producing crisp silhouettes and stable spacing in lines of text.
Best suited to display sizes where its wide, streamlined forms can create a strong graphic presence—headlines, product branding, event posters, gaming titles, and technology-themed interfaces. It also works for short UI labels and dashboards when you want a distinctive, futuristic voice, though its extended width will demand extra horizontal space.
The typeface reads as modern and performance-oriented, evoking motorsport, sci‑fi UI, and contemporary industrial design. Its oblique posture and rounded-square geometry convey speed and efficiency without feeling aggressive, keeping a polished, high-tech tone.
The design appears intended to deliver a clean, contemporary sans with a signature rounded-rect geometry and an energetic slant, prioritizing a cohesive tech aesthetic and strong silhouette recognition across letters and numbers.
Distinctive rounded-square bowls in characters like O, D, and Q reinforce the superelliptical theme, while angular diagonals in K, V, W, and X add momentum. Numerals follow the same modular logic, staying clear and consistent with the letterforms for cohesive alphanumeric settings.
