A tall, tightly set italic sans with monoline strokes and rounded, soft terminals. The letterforms are strongly slanted and compact, with narrow proportions and an overall streamlined silhouette. Curves are smooth and elliptical, counters are relatively small, and joins stay clean and simplified, giving the design a consistent, brisk rhythm. Numerals follow the same condensed, forward-leaning construction, keeping color even across mixed text.
Works well for posters, headlines, and branding where a sense of momentum is desirable, especially when horizontal space is limited. It also suits packaging, labels, and promotional graphics that benefit from a condensed italic without sharp, high-contrast detailing. For longer copy, it’s best used at comfortable sizes with generous line spacing to offset the compact apertures.
The forward slant and narrow, tall shapes create a sense of motion and immediacy, reading as lively and informal rather than ceremonial. Its smooth, rounded geometry feels approachable and slightly retro, with a sporty, display-leaning voice that still remains readable in short passages.
The design appears intended to provide a compact, energetic italic voice with smooth, rounded sans forms that maintain an even texture. It prioritizes speed and space economy while keeping shapes straightforward and contemporary.
Capital forms are simple and modern, while the lowercase leans on single-storey constructions and compact apertures that emphasize speed and cohesion. The overall texture is uniform and dark enough for headings, with the tight proportions making it especially space-efficient.
