A compact, slanted sans with heavy, uniform strokes and rounded-rectangle construction in its curves. Letterforms are tightly set with a tall, condensed footprint and blunt terminals, giving the alphabet a dense, poster-ready texture. Rounds such as O/C/G and numerals lean on superellipse-like geometry, while diagonals (A/V/W/X/Y) are steep and sturdy, reinforcing a forward-leaning rhythm. Counters are small but open enough to keep shapes recognizable at display sizes, and figures follow the same compressed, high-impact silhouette.
Best suited to display typography where compact width and strong presence are advantages—headlines, posters, apparel graphics, and bold brand lockups. It can also work for signage or packaging where a condensed, high-contrast-in-size silhouette helps text stay prominent in limited space.
The overall tone is assertive and kinetic, with a sprint-forward feel that reads as sporty, promotional, and attention-grabbing. Its bold massing and slant create a sense of speed and urgency, suited to messaging that needs to feel active and contemporary rather than quiet or refined.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a narrow measure, combining a forward slant with rounded, superellipse-based forms for a modern, athletic headline voice. Its simplified, heavy construction prioritizes immediacy and legibility at larger sizes over delicate detail.
Uppercase forms are especially impactful and uniform in color, while lowercase maintains the same thick, compact logic with simplified joins and minimal modulation. The ampersand and punctuation in the sample text sit comfortably within the same heavy, slanted voice, supporting punchy headlines and short phrases.
