A heavy, oblique sans built from squared-off curves and rounded-rectangle bowls, giving counters a superelliptical feel. Strokes are uniform and dense with minimal modulation, and terminals tend to be flat or softly rounded, producing a crisp, engineered silhouette. The letterforms show roomy, squared counters (notably in round glyphs and numerals) and relatively tight apertures that keep the texture dark and consistent. Overall spacing reads stable and slightly compact in running text, while the slant adds forward motion without introducing calligraphic contrast.
Best suited to headlines, logos, and branding that benefit from a technical or athletic voice. It also fits UI labels, dashboards, and product graphics where a sturdy, forward-leaning sans can add energy and clarity at medium to large sizes.
The tone is modern and performance-oriented, blending a technical, machined look with a streamlined italic pace. It feels confident and utilitarian—appropriate for interfaces and systems that want to signal speed, precision, and strength.
The design appears aimed at delivering a contemporary, speed-inflected sans with superelliptical construction—combining the familiarity of a grotesk-like skeleton with rounded-rectangle forms for a distinctly engineered, modern identity.
Rounded-rectangle geometry is especially evident in the O/0 and other curved forms, and the numerals share the same squared, softened-corner construction for a cohesive alphanumeric set. The italic angle and firm stroke weight create strong presence at display sizes, while the relatively closed shapes can make small sizes feel dense.
