A condensed oblique sans with a monolinear stroke and softly rounded ends that keep the texture smooth despite the strong slant. Forms are built from narrow, vertically oriented counters with rounded-rectangle influence, producing clean, elongated bowls and restrained apertures. Curves and joins stay tight and controlled, with minimal detailing and a consistent rhythm across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited to display settings where a condensed, slanted voice helps conserve space while adding momentum—such as headlines, posters, cover lines, and brand marks. It can also work for short product copy on packaging or signage where a sleek, vertical rhythm is desired, but is less ideal for long-form reading at small sizes.
The overall tone feels fast and streamlined, with a subtle vintage display flavor reminiscent of mid‑century signage and editorial titling. Its tall, leaning silhouettes convey motion and urgency while the rounded shaping keeps it approachable rather than harsh.
Designed to deliver a compact, high-impact typographic voice with a strong forward lean and smooth, rounded construction. The intention appears to balance modern simplicity with a retro-leaning display attitude, emphasizing speed, height, and clean consistency across the set.
The narrow set width and steep oblique angle create pronounced diagonal flow in words, making spacing and word shapes a defining feature. Numerals and capitals follow the same tall, rounded construction, supporting a cohesive look for headlines and mixed alphanumeric settings.
