A compact, oblique sans with heavy, uniform strokes and tightly controlled curves. Letterforms lean forward with crisp terminals and squared-off finishing, giving counters a slightly rectangular, engineered feel. Rounds (C, G, O, Q, 0) are sturdy and compressed, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) are sharp and decisive, creating a strong rhythm across the set. The overall construction favors simple geometric shapes and consistent stroke behavior, producing a dense, high-impact texture in words and lines.
Best suited to short, bold statements such as headlines, posters, promotional graphics, and brand wordmarks where a compact, energetic italic presence is desired. It can also work well for labels and packaging that need a sturdy, high-contrast-from-background silhouette at a glance.
The forward slant and compact massing create a fast, assertive tone with an industrial, no-nonsense edge. It reads as energetic and functional rather than delicate, with a straightforward voice suited to attention-grabbing statements.
The typeface appears designed to deliver maximum impact in a compact footprint, combining a forward-leaning stance with sturdy, simplified shapes for clear recognition and strong visual drive.
The design maintains an even cadence and predictable spacing, which helps repeated characters and tabular-style sequences feel orderly. Numerals match the letters in weight and stance, supporting strong emphasis in mixed text like scores or short data strings.
