A compact, right-slanted sans with thick, even strokes and smoothly rounded corners throughout. Letterforms are tightly proportioned with short extenders and a consistent, energetic forward lean. Curves read as superelliptical rather than perfectly circular, giving bowls and counters a slightly squared softness. Terminals are mostly blunt and clean, with minimal modulation and a sturdy, graphic silhouette that stays crisp in dense settings.
Best suited to display roles where emphasis and motion matter—headlines, posters, event graphics, and sporty or performance-oriented branding. The condensed proportions help fit more characters into limited space, and the bold, rounded construction holds up well for large-scale signage and punchy packaging typography.
The overall tone feels fast and assertive, with a sporty, action-oriented energy. Its rounded geometry softens the impact just enough to keep it approachable while still reading as confident and attention-grabbing.
Likely designed to deliver high-impact messaging with a streamlined, contemporary voice, combining a forward-leaning stance with rounded, superellipse-like construction for a distinctive, modern silhouette.
Round letters like O/Q show a subtly squarish curvature, and the numerals carry the same compact, high-impact stance. The italic angle and tight width produce strong directional rhythm in words, making lines feel like they’re moving forward.
