A tightly condensed, forward-slanted sans with tall proportions and compact sidebearings. Strokes are solid and even, with rounded-rectangle (superellipse) curves that keep counters small and shapes controlled. Terminals are clean and clipped, and the overall silhouette favors verticality and speed, producing a dense, high-impact texture in lines of text. Numerals follow the same narrow, upright-to-slanted rhythm with simple, sturdy forms.
Best suited to display settings where space is tight but impact is required—headlines, posters, and bold editorial callouts. The condensed build also works well for sports branding, event graphics, product packaging, and labels where a dynamic, compact voice helps maximize information density without losing presence.
The typeface reads fast and assertive, with a kinetic, performance-driven tone. Its condensed stance and slant give it a sense of motion and urgency, while the softened corners keep it contemporary rather than harsh. Overall it feels sporty and utilitarian, suited to messaging that needs to look active and decisive.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, energetic voice with contemporary rounded-rect geometry. By combining a strong slant, tall condensed proportions, and controlled curves, it aims to project speed and confidence while staying clean and practical for bold display typography.
Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent, streamlined construction, and the narrow width makes word shapes compact. Round letters like O/Q and C/G show squarish curvature, reinforcing the engineered, track-like feel. The set maintains a strong, uniform color that stays steady across mixed-case and numerals.
