A tightly condensed, heavy oblique sans with compact proportions and rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) curves. Strokes are uniform and dense, with squared terminals softened by subtle rounding, producing a sturdy, blocky texture. Counters are small and apertures are relatively closed, especially in round letters, while the narrow set-width and strong slant create a fast, forward-leaning rhythm. Lowercase is tall and sturdy, with simplified, geometric shaping that stays consistent across the alphabet and numerals.
Best used for headlines and short bursts of copy where impact matters most—posters, sports and fitness branding, bold packaging, labels, and promotional graphics. It can also work for compact titling on covers or signage when set large enough to preserve counter clarity.
The overall tone is forceful and energetic, with a forward-leaning stance that reads as sporty and urgent. Its compressed, heavy forms feel industrial and no-nonsense, suited to messaging that needs to hit hard and move quickly.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence in minimal horizontal space, combining a condensed footprint with a dynamic oblique stance and softened geometric curves for a modern, punchy display voice.
The punctuation and figures share the same compact, high-density construction, maintaining a consistent dark color in text. At smaller sizes, the tight counters and narrow spacing can visually tighten further, so it benefits from generous tracking or larger display settings.
