A tightly condensed, right-leaning sans with tall proportions and compact counters. Strokes are largely uniform and straight, with a distinctly angular build: squared terminals, clipped corners, and occasional notch-like cut-ins that give many letters a chiseled silhouette. The rhythm is narrow and vertical, while the slant and sharp joins add forward motion; bowls and curves are restrained and often faceted rather than round.
Best suited to headlines, short slogans, posters, and display settings where the condensed width and energetic slant can add impact. It also works well for sports and motorsport-themed branding, logo wordmarks, packaging callouts, and attention-grabbing UI labels where space is limited but a strong voice is desired.
The overall tone feels fast, assertive, and utilitarian, evoking motorsport graphics, athletic branding, and technical labeling. Its hard angles and compressed stance project intensity and a slightly retro, arcade/industrial energy rather than softness or neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a narrow footprint, combining a forward-leaning stance with angular, cut-corner construction to signal speed and toughness. Its consistent stroke weight and squared detailing suggest a display-first approach aimed at branding and titling rather than extended reading.
Uppercase forms are especially blocky and monoline in character, while lowercase remains similarly compact with simplified, squared details. Numerals follow the same condensed, angular logic for a cohesive headline set. The distinctive cut corners and tight apertures can create a dense texture in longer lines, especially at smaller sizes.
