A compact, heavy sans with a pronounced rightward slant and tightly packed proportions. Letterforms are built from squared-off curves and rounded-rectangle counters, giving bowls and apertures a smooth, superelliptical feel rather than circular geometry. Strokes are uniform and dense with firm, slightly chamfered joins; terminals are blunt and clean, contributing to a solid, engineered rhythm. Uppercase forms are tall and straight-sided, while lowercase stays sturdy and utilitarian, with single-storey shapes and simplified details that hold up under weight.
Best suited to high-impact display work such as headlines, posters, branding marks, apparel graphics, and packaging where dense, slanted letterforms add energy. It can also serve for short subheads or callouts when you want a compact, punchy voice rather than extended text readability.
The overall tone is fast, forceful, and contemporary, combining athletic urgency with a mechanical, industrial steadiness. Its slant and compressed stance suggest motion and impact, making it feel confident and performance-oriented.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space, pairing a forward-leaning stance with rounded-rect geometry for a modern, performance-driven look. Its simplified, sturdy construction prioritizes bold presence and consistent rhythm across letters and numerals.
Counters are relatively tight and openings are restrained, creating strong black shapes that read best at larger sizes or in short bursts. Numerals follow the same condensed, blocky logic with rounded-rectangle interior spaces that keep the set visually consistent.
