A condensed oblique sans with monoline strokes and rounded-rect (superellipse-like) counters and terminals. Curves are consistently flattened into softly chamfered corners, giving letters like O, C, and G a squared-off roundness rather than true circular bowls. Joins are clean and fairly mechanical, with tight apertures and compact spacing that creates a brisk, vertical rhythm. Numerals follow the same geometry, mixing straight-sided forms with rounded corners for a cohesive, utilitarian set.
Works well for headlines, short copy, and brand marks that want a quick, contemporary slant and a slightly technical flavor. The condensed proportions make it useful where horizontal space is limited—such as packaging callouts, UI labels, or scoreboard/athletic graphics—while still keeping a consistent, readable texture at display sizes.
The overall tone feels technical and streamlined, with a forward-leaning motion that reads as fast and purposeful. Its squared-round construction adds an industrial, engineered character while staying approachable rather than aggressive.
The design appears intended to merge a condensed italic voice with squared-round geometry, producing a modern sans that suggests speed, precision, and engineered simplicity. Its consistent corner treatment and low-detail letterforms prioritize a unified silhouette and strong typographic rhythm in branding and display contexts.
Diagonal strokes (such as in A, V, W, and X) are steep and crisp, reinforcing the condensed, high-velocity feel. Lowercase forms remain simple and sturdy, with single-storey structures and restrained detailing that favors clarity over ornament.
