A tall, tightly set italic with compact proportions and a strong forward slant. Strokes are clean and mostly monolinear with subtle modulation, and curves tend toward squarish, rounded-rectangle construction rather than fully circular bowls. Terminals are crisp and controlled, with a mix of straight stems and taut curves that keep counters narrow and vertical. The overall texture is even and efficient, producing a dense, high-impact line in text while maintaining clear letter separation.
Well suited to headlines, subheads, and display typography where a compact, fast-moving italic can deliver impact without taking much horizontal space. It can also work for branding, packaging, and editorial graphics that benefit from a streamlined, modern voice, especially in short-to-medium runs of text.
The tone feels brisk and contemporary, with a sporty, headline-driven urgency. Its narrow, slanted rhythm suggests motion and confidence, reading as purposeful and streamlined rather than expressive or calligraphic. The squared-off roundness adds a slightly technical, engineered flavor that keeps it modern and restrained.
The design appears intended to provide a condensed italic for space-sensitive layouts, combining clean sans construction with squared, superelliptical curves to create a modern, high-efficiency texture. It aims for legibility at display sizes while projecting speed, precision, and contemporary polish.
Uppercase forms read especially tall and poster-like, while the lowercase keeps a straightforward, uncluttered construction with compact apertures. Numerals share the same condensed, upright-with-slant stance, giving mixed text a consistent, disciplined profile.
