A tall, tightly set oblique sans with compact, rounded-rectangle curves and a consistently heavy, even stroke. The proportions are strongly condensed with long verticals and narrow counters, while terminals are mostly smooth and softly squared rather than sharply cut. Curved letters (like O/C/S) read as superelliptical forms, and joins remain clean and controlled, giving the alphabet a uniform, engineered rhythm. Numerals follow the same narrow, upright structure with rounded corners and clear, simplified silhouettes.
It works best for headlines, titles, and short bursts of copy where a compact, high-impact look is needed. The condensed footprint makes it useful for space-constrained branding, packaging panels, and sports or event graphics that benefit from a sense of speed and urgency.
The overall tone is fast and assertive, with a forward-leaning, streamlined feel that suggests motion and efficiency. Its condensed stance and rounded geometry give it a contemporary, sporty flavor without becoming playful or decorative.
The design appears aimed at delivering a modern condensed oblique voice with smooth, superelliptical curves—prioritizing punchy presence, efficient width, and a cohesive, contemporary texture in display typography.
The oblique angle is consistent across uppercase and lowercase, and the narrow widths create a strong vertical texture in text. Rounded corners and restrained detailing help maintain clarity at larger display sizes, while the compressed counters and tight shapes can feel dense in longer passages.
