A condensed, heavily slanted sans with compact proportions and a pronounced forward lean. Strokes are thick and largely monolinear, with rounded-rectangular (superelliptic) counters and softened corners that keep the dense weight from feeling brittle. The rhythm is tight and vertical, with short crossbars and small apertures that create a solid, continuous texture in text. Numerals and capitals follow the same compressed, punchy construction, emphasizing speed and impact over delicacy.
Best suited to display applications where strong presence and speed cues are desirable: headlines, posters, sports and fitness branding, promotional graphics, and packaging. It can also work for short UI labels or callouts when space is tight, though longer text will appear dense and should be set with generous tracking and leading.
The overall tone is fast, assertive, and performance-oriented—like graphics built for motion. It reads as contemporary and utilitarian, with a loud, no-nonsense voice suited to attention-grabbing messages. The slant adds a sense of momentum and urgency, while the rounded-square forms keep it approachable rather than harsh.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in limited horizontal space, combining a steep slant and compact widths to communicate motion and urgency. The rounded-rectangle geometry suggests a contemporary, engineered feel aimed at bold branding and advertising contexts.
Uppercase forms are tall and compact, and several letters show tightly closed shapes (notably in C/S and the bowls of B/P/R), which increases darkness and density. The lowercase maintains a strong, sturdy silhouette with minimal stroke modulation, producing a unified, punchy color in paragraphs. The digit set matches the same condensed, forward-leaning structure for consistent display typography.
