A dense, condensed sans with a pronounced forward slant and heavy, even stroke weight. Letterforms are built from rounded-rectangle geometry: tight counters, softly curved corners, and straight-sided bowls that feel squared-off rather than fully circular. The rhythm is compact with short extenders and sturdy terminals, producing a tightly packed silhouette that reads as solid blocks of color in headlines. Numerals and capitals share the same compressed stance, with simplified, low-detail shapes optimized for impact.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and promotional graphics where a compact footprint and strong emphasis are needed. It works well for sports and action-oriented branding, apparel marks, packaging callouts, and punchy signage. For paragraph text, it’s most effective in short bursts or larger sizes where the condensed, heavy shapes can breathe.
The overall tone is fast and forceful, with a sporty, high-energy slant that suggests motion and urgency. Its compact massing and squared rounds add an industrial toughness, while the smooth corners keep it approachable rather than harsh. The result feels suited to bold statements, competitive branding, and attention-grabbing messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in limited horizontal space, combining a forward-leaning stance with rounded-rectilinear construction for a modern, energetic voice. Its simplified, sturdy forms prioritize immediacy and visual punch over delicate detail.
In the sample text, the strong inclination and narrow proportions create a noticeable left-to-right momentum, especially in all-caps lines. Tight internal spaces and heavy joins mean it benefits from generous tracking when used at smaller sizes or in longer strings, while large sizes emphasize its graphic, poster-like presence.
