A condensed, right-leaning sans with compact proportions and a tall, upright footprint despite the oblique stance. Strokes are heavy and fairly even, with subtly rounded corners and squarish-curved (superellipse-like) counters that keep forms sturdy rather than delicate. Terminals tend to be clean and blunt, and curves are tightened to maintain a brisk rhythm; rounded letters like O/C feel more like softened rectangles than perfect circles. Uppercase forms read rigid and athletic, while lowercase stays simple and utilitarian, with single-storey a and g and short, efficient arms and shoulders.
Best suited for high-impact display use such as sports identities, promotional headlines, posters, and packaging where a compact, energetic voice is needed. It can also work for short UI labels or wayfinding-style signage when set with comfortable spacing, but its heavy, condensed texture will dominate in long passages.
The overall tone is fast, assertive, and performance-minded, with a slightly industrial edge. Its slant and condensed build create a sense of motion and urgency, making it feel energetic and attention-grabbing rather than calm or literary.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space while conveying speed and strength. Rounded-rectangle construction and blunt terminals keep the letterforms robust and consistent, prioritizing bold presence and quick recognition over typographic nuance.
Spacing appears relatively tight, reinforcing the compact texture in lines of text. Numerals share the same condensed, heavy construction and read clearly at display sizes, with strong silhouettes and minimal ornamentation.
