A condensed, heavily built sans with a consistent oblique slant and compact proportions. Strokes are thick and uniform with minimal contrast, and curves resolve into rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) bowls that keep counters tight and sturdy. Terminals are mostly blunt and squared-off, giving the letterforms a clipped, efficient feel, while the overall rhythm stays upright in construction but forward-leaning in posture for speed and emphasis.
Best suited for bold headlines, promotional typography, and branding that needs a compact, high-impact voice—such as sports identities, event posters, product packaging, and apparel graphics. It can also work for short UI labels or badges where space is limited and a strong directional emphasis is beneficial.
The tone is fast, forceful, and utilitarian—more about impact than subtlety. Its compressed stance and strong massing evoke athletic graphics, motorsport cues, and high-energy headlines where urgency and momentum are desired.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in tight horizontal space while signaling motion through an oblique stance. Its rounded-rectangle geometry and sturdy, low-contrast construction suggest a focus on clarity, durability, and a modern, performance-oriented feel.
The narrow fit and dense internal counters create a dark typographic color that reads best at larger sizes. Rounded corners and compact apertures help maintain cohesion across mixed-case text, while the strong slant adds motion even in short words and numerals.
