A compact, slanted sans with heavy, uniform strokes and tightly condensed proportions. Letterforms are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, with softened corners and flat, straight terminals that keep edges crisp while avoiding sharp points. Counters are small and often rectangular, and joins stay clean and mechanical, producing a strong vertical rhythm and a consistent, engineered texture across lines. Uppercase and lowercase share the same streamlined, forward-leaning construction, and the numerals follow suit with simplified, compact shapes.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, athletic or motorsport branding, packaging callouts, and game or tech-themed titles. It can also work for signage or labels where compact width and strong presence are priorities, though longer passages will appear dense.
The overall tone is fast, tough, and action-oriented, with a retro-technical flavor. Its oblique stance and compressed massing suggest speed and impact, while the rounded corners add a controlled, machined friendliness rather than aggression.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space, using a forward slant and rounded-rectangular construction to evoke speed, machinery, and modern display typography. Its simplified counters and consistent stroke behavior prioritize bold legibility and a distinctive, energetic silhouette.
The density of the forms and the narrow apertures create a dark color on the page, especially in longer text. In all-caps settings it reads like signage or performance branding, while mixed-case retains a uniform, utilitarian cadence rather than a calligraphic feel.
