A compact, oblique sans with heavy, uniform strokes and tightly controlled proportions. Counters are rounded-rectangular and fairly small, giving the letters a dense, high-impact silhouette. Curves and corners are softened into a squarish, superelliptical geometry, while terminals tend toward clean, cut ends. Spacing is economical and the overall rhythm is brisk, with consistent weight and minimal modulation across the set.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as headlines, posters, event graphics, and sports or streetwear branding where a forceful italic presence helps create motion. It can also work for packaging callouts and UI labels in larger sizes where compact width and strong color are beneficial.
The tone is assertive and athletic, with a forward-leaning stance that reads as fast and contemporary. Its dense forms and compressed width communicate urgency and confidence, making messages feel loud and direct without becoming decorative.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in limited horizontal space, combining a compressed build with softened, squarish curves for a modern, industrial clarity. The oblique angle reinforces a sense of speed and momentum while keeping the construction straightforward and highly consistent.
The numerals match the same compact, rounded-rect language and hold up well at display sizes. The lowercase maintains the same sturdy, condensed build, with single-storey shapes where applicable and simplified joins that keep the texture smooth and cohesive.
