A compact, oblique sans with heavy, compressed proportions and a streamlined, forward-leaning stance. Letterforms are built from rounded-rectangle geometry: corners are softened while bowls stay tight and squarish, producing a superelliptical feel rather than pure circles. Strokes read as solid and punchy with clean, mostly uniform widths, and counters are narrow but kept open enough for display use. Curves transition into straighter segments with crisp terminals, and the overall rhythm is dense and efficient, with a consistent slant across capitals, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited to short, bold settings where impact and momentum matter: headlines, posters, sports and fitness branding, product packaging, and logo wordmarks. It can also work for UI labels or wayfinding when large enough, but its dense counters and strong slant favor display sizes over long reading.
The overall tone is fast and forceful, evoking motion, performance, and competition. Its condensed, slanted silhouette and chunky black mass give it a confident, high-impact voice suited to energetic messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum punch in minimal width while maintaining a smooth, modern silhouette. By combining rounded-rectangle construction with an oblique angle, it aims to communicate speed and strength in contemporary branding and display typography.
Capitals are tall and authoritative, while lowercase maintains the same mechanical, rounded-rect construction for a cohesive system. Figures and punctuation follow the same slanted, compact logic, helping mixed settings feel uniform and engineered rather than calligraphic.
