A compact, forward-leaning sans with tightly condensed proportions and heavy, uniform strokes. Curves are built from rounded, squarish bowls and softened corners, giving round letters a superelliptical, almost rounded-rectangle feel. Terminals are mostly blunt and clean, counters are relatively small, and the overall rhythm is dense and vertical, with consistent slant and minimal stroke modulation. Numerals and capitals follow the same compressed, solid construction for a highly unified texture.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, sports or event branding, and bold packaging. It can also work for UI or app headers where a compact, emphatic voice is needed, especially at larger sizes where counters have room to breathe.
The tone is energetic and assertive, with a fast, in-motion character created by the strong slant and compressed width. Its dense weight and simplified geometry read as contemporary and functional, leaning toward sporty and headline-driven communication.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space, combining a strong slant with compact, rounded geometry to project speed and modernity. Its uniform stroke weight and simplified forms prioritize bold readability and a cohesive, energetic texture in display typography.
The condensed width and tight internal spaces create a dark color and strong line economy, which emphasizes impact over delicacy. The rounded-rectangle curvature softens the heaviness, keeping the style approachable while still feeling forceful and directional.
