A condensed, right-slanted sans with clean, low-modulation strokes and softly squared (superellipse-like) curves throughout. The geometry reads streamlined and compact, with tight bowls and counters and a consistent rhythm that emphasizes verticality. Terminals are mostly straight and crisp rather than calligraphic, while rounded rectangles shape letters like O, C, and G to keep the tone friendly despite the compressed proportions. Numerals and lowercase follow the same compact, slightly mechanical construction, maintaining a steady texture in lines of text.
Best suited to display settings where a compact footprint and a sense of speed are useful—headlines, posters, covers, and brand wordmarks. It can also work for short bursts of text such as pull quotes, UI labels, or packaging callouts when you want a condensed, modern italic with a clean tone.
The overall voice feels contemporary and forward-leaning, with a fast, engineered sensibility. Its narrow, italic stance suggests motion and urgency, giving it a sporty, editorial energy rather than a formal or classic one.
The design appears aimed at delivering a space-saving, motion-forward sans that stays tidy and readable by pairing condensed proportions with rounded-rectangle geometry. It prioritizes a crisp, contemporary texture in lines while keeping forms approachable through softened corners.
The slant is pronounced but controlled, producing a strong directional flow in words. Round forms keep their corners subtly softened, which helps legibility and prevents the condensed shapes from feeling brittle, especially in the sample text where the texture stays even and uncluttered.
