A condensed, oblique sans with tall proportions and a clean, linear build. Strokes are smooth and mostly monoline, with rounded joins and gently tapered terminals that keep the texture crisp without looking mechanical. Counters are compact and verticals dominate, giving the face a high, efficient rhythm in lines of text. Figures follow the same narrow, forward-leaning logic, producing a consistent, streamlined color across mixed copy.
Best suited to space-conscious settings such as headlines, subheads, posters, and branding systems where a narrow footprint is helpful. It also works well for short UI labels, navigation, and packaging copy that benefits from a modern, energetic slant, especially at medium-to-large sizes.
The overall tone feels contemporary and kinetic, suggesting speed and efficiency rather than warmth or formality. Its narrow stance and forward slant convey urgency and motion, while the low-detail construction keeps the voice neutral and businesslike.
Likely designed to provide a compact, modern sans that feels fast and contemporary while staying legible in continuous text. The consistent oblique angle and restrained detailing point to an intention of versatile, space-saving typography for display and interface-oriented applications.
The italic slant is pronounced enough to be a defining feature, especially in longer text, where the condensed spacing creates a tight, fast cadence. Curved letters remain open and readable despite the compressed width, and the design maintains a consistent italic angle across capitals, lowercase, and numerals.
