A tightly condensed, forward-leaning sans with compact proportions and a strong vertical rhythm. Strokes are largely monoline with minimal modulation, and counters stay relatively small, giving the face a dense, high-impact silhouette. Curved letters are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, with softened corners and ovalized bowls that stay narrow rather than expansive. Terminals are mostly blunt and clean, while joins and curves keep a controlled, engineered feel; numerals follow the same narrow, upright-to-oblique structure with smooth, closed forms.
Best suited to display settings where you want maximum impact in limited horizontal space—headlines, poster typography, sports and fitness branding, and punchy packaging callouts. It can also work for short editorial subheads and banners, where its dense texture and forward slant reinforce a sense of momentum.
The overall tone is fast, pressurized, and energetic, reading like motion and acceleration even in short words. Its condensed obliqueness and compact spacing suggest urgency and performance, while the rounded geometry keeps the voice contemporary rather than harsh.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, speed-driven condensed voice: strong presence, efficient width, and a streamlined geometric construction that stays consistent from caps to numerals. It prioritizes punchy, space-saving display performance with a controlled, industrial smoothness.
The italic slant is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, helping text hold a cohesive rhythm in longer lines. In the samples, the condensed width and small apertures create a dark, continuous texture that favors impact over airy readability at small sizes.
