A heavy, condensed oblique sans with compact proportions and rounded-rectangle construction. Strokes are thick and uniform with minimal modulation, producing solid, dark letterforms and tight internal counters. Curves read as squared-off rounds (superellipse-like), while terminals are clean and blunt. The overall rhythm is forward-leaning and tightly spaced, with tall lowercase that keeps word shapes dense and vertical despite the slant.
Best suited to headlines, poster typography, and bold brand statements where a tight, high-impact voice is needed. It works well for sports and performance-themed graphics, product packaging, and promotional layouts that benefit from a condensed, fast-leaning look. In longer passages it will feel dense, so it’s strongest in short lines and display sizes.
The tone is forceful and kinetic, with a speed-and-impact feel created by the pronounced slant and compressed width. Its dense black shapes read as confident and attention-grabbing, suggesting performance, urgency, and modern industrial energy.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact in limited horizontal space, combining a condensed build with a strong oblique stance for motion and emphasis. Rounded-rectangle curves and blunt terminals keep the style modern and robust while maintaining consistent weight and a unified, high-contrast silhouette against the page.
Uppercase forms are compact and sturdy, with counters that stay relatively narrow (notably in B, P, R, and 8). The numerals follow the same squared-round logic and heavy fill, maintaining a consistent color in headlines and short bursts of text.
