A steeply slanted, condensed display face with strong thick–thin modulation and crisp, knife-like terminals. Strokes often taper into pointed ends, and counters are tight, giving letters a compact, compressed rhythm. Curved forms read as rounded, slightly squarish bowls, while joins and diagonals stay energetic and forward-leaning. The overall texture is dark and punchy with pronounced internal highlights created by the contrast.
Best suited to large sizes where the sharp tapering and contrast can read clearly—posters, punchy headlines, film or event titles, and sports or automotive branding. It can also work for packaging or logos that need a condensed, high-impact voice, but is less ideal for long passages of small text.
The tone is fast, forceful, and performance-driven—more about impact than subtlety. It evokes headline typography associated with action, sport, and high-energy branding, with a slightly retro, poster-like attitude.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual momentum and density in limited horizontal space, combining a strong italic stance with dramatic contrast to create a bold, performance-oriented display look.
Uppercase forms look engineered for presence, with narrow proportions and dramatic slant helping lines of text form a strong directional flow. The numerals match the same compact, high-contrast construction, making them suitable for bold, attention-grabbing figures.
