A condensed oblique sans with uniform stroke weight and softly squared, superellipse-like curves. Counters are compact and mostly closed, with rounded-rectangle bowls in letters like B, D, O, P, and R. Terminals are clean and mostly straight-cut, while joins stay crisp, giving the design a taut, engineered rhythm. The lowercase shows sturdy, simplified forms with single-storey a and g, a tall straight i/j with compact dots, and an overall forward-leaning, space-saving texture.
Works best for headlines, short statements, and branding where a condensed, forward-leaning voice is desirable. It suits posters, sports and automotive-style graphics, wayfinding accents, and product labeling where space is limited. In longer text, it will read more like a punchy display italic than a quiet body face.
The overall tone is fast and purposeful, with a streamlined, contemporary feel. The slant and condensed proportions suggest motion and urgency, while the rounded-rectangular shapes keep it approachable rather than harsh. It reads as utilitarian and sporty—more about performance and clarity than decoration.
Likely designed to deliver a compact, high-impact oblique sans with a distinctive rounded-rectangular construction. The goal appears to be efficient letterfit and a sense of speed, while maintaining clean, consistent geometry across letters and numbers for strong visual cohesion.
The italic angle is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, and the figures follow the same squared-round geometry for a cohesive set. The design’s narrow footprint and tight internal spaces create a dense typographic color that holds together well at display sizes, especially in all caps.
