A condensed, strongly slanted sans with heavy, smooth strokes and rounded, superelliptic curves throughout. Counters are compact and openings are relatively narrow, creating a dense, high-ink silhouette with a steady rhythm. Terminals are clean and rounded rather than sharply cut, and curves (notably in C/G/O/Q and the numerals) read as soft-rectangular rather than purely circular. The overall texture is tight and uniform, with a forward-leaning posture that emphasizes speed and emphasis in both the uppercase and lowercase.
Best suited to display use: headlines, posters, sports or event branding, packaging, and bold signage where a compact width is useful and impact matters. It can work for short subheads or callouts, but the dense texture and narrow apertures suggest avoiding long body copy at small sizes.
The font conveys motion and urgency, with a sporty, headline-driven attitude. Its compact, forward-leaning shapes feel energetic and assertive, leaning toward mid-century/retro display styling while remaining clean and modern in construction. The bold presence and narrow footprint give it a confident, attention-grabbing voice.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum emphasis in minimal horizontal space, pairing condensed proportions with rounded, superelliptic construction and a strong slant for a fast, energetic look. It prioritizes graphic punch and a consistent, high-density texture for marketing and titling contexts.
The sample text shows the design holding together well in short phrases and punchy lines, where its dense color and narrow set create strong impact. The rounded corners keep the heavy forms from feeling harsh, while the pronounced slant adds momentum and a poster-like flair.
