Keywords: headlines, posters, sports branding, packaging, labels, sporty, urgent, industrial, retro, compact impact, convey speed, graphic emphasis, condensed, oblique, blocky, rounded corners, compact counters.
A heavy, condensed oblique sans with rounded-rectangle geometry and tightly packed counters. Strokes stay largely uniform, with crisp terminals and minimal modulation, producing dense black shapes and strong vertical rhythm. Curves (C, O, S, e) feel squarish and controlled rather than fully circular, while diagonals and joins are clean and decisive for a sturdy, poster-ready texture. Numerals share the same compressed, slanted construction, reinforcing a cohesive, high-impact set.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, sports and fitness branding, packaging, labels, and promotional graphics. It can work for subheads and short bursts of copy when ample size and spacing are available, but the dense forms are most effective when used as display type.
The overall tone is fast, assertive, and utilitarian—suggesting speed, pressure, and momentum. Its compact, forward-leaning stance reads as sporty and attention-grabbing, with a slightly retro display flavor that evokes headline graphics and performance branding.
Designed to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space while projecting speed and force. The rounded-rectangle construction aims for a modern, industrial sturdiness without sacrificing a friendly smoothness at the corners.
The combination of condensed proportions and rounded-rectangular bowls creates a distinctive “packed” silhouette that holds together as a dark mass in lines of text. The oblique angle is pronounced enough to communicate motion, and the tight internal spaces favor larger sizes where the shapes can breathe.
