A compact, oblique sans with tall proportions and tight sidebearings that create a fast, vertical rhythm. Strokes are clean and largely monolinear, with smooth, rounded joins and simple terminals. Curves are slightly squared-off by the narrow build, while counters stay open enough to keep letters distinct in dense settings. Uppercase forms are streamlined and upright in structure but consistently slanted; lowercase follows the same forward-leaning, utilitarian construction.
Best suited to headlines and short to medium-length display text where space is limited and a dynamic, modern voice is desired. It can work well for sports or automotive-styled branding, packaging callouts, and directional or promotional signage where a condensed, slanted sans helps create urgency and impact.
The overall tone feels brisk and contemporary, with a sense of motion driven by the consistent slant and condensed stance. It reads as confident and functional rather than decorative, leaning toward a sporty, headline-oriented personality.
The font appears designed to deliver a compact, high-energy sans voice that maximizes fit while maintaining clear letter differentiation. Its consistent oblique angle and restrained detailing suggest an emphasis on straightforward readability with a contemporary, motion-forward aesthetic.
The design’s narrow width amplifies verticality, making straight stems and diagonals especially prominent in letters like M, N, V, W, and X. Numerals follow the same condensed, forward-leaning logic for a cohesive text-and-figure color.
