A condensed, forward-slanted sans with tall proportions and compact counters. Strokes are heavy and largely uniform, producing a dense, poster-ready texture with minimal modulation. Curves read as rounded-rectangular rather than purely circular, giving bowls and terminals a squared-off, engineered feel. Apertures are relatively tight, and the overall rhythm is vertically driven, with crisp joins and sturdy, simplified shapes that stay consistent across cases and numerals.
Best suited to large-scale display settings where impact and space efficiency matter—posters, event and sports branding, packaging callouts, and bold signage. It can also serve as a strong secondary typeface for short, punchy subheads where a compact, energetic voice is desired.
The tone is energetic and forceful, with a speed-forward slant that suggests motion and pressure. Its compact, high-impact shapes feel sporty and utilitarian, leaning toward headline intensity rather than conversational softness.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch in tight horizontal space, combining a pronounced slant with compact, squared-round forms for a fast, modern, utilitarian presence.
In the samples, the strong black presence and narrow set create a continuous, emphatic line of text, especially in mixed-case phrases. The figures and capitals share the same condensed stance, supporting a consistent, streamlined voice across alphanumerics.
