A condensed, forward-leaning sans with rounded corners and a compact, vertical stance. Strokes show clear thick-to-thin modulation that reads more like sculpted weighting than calligraphic stress, with heavy verticals and tapered joins creating a brisk rhythm. Counters are tight and often squared-off or pill-shaped, and terminals tend to shear diagonally, reinforcing speed and direction. The lowercase is large and sturdy, with simplified, slightly squared forms and a generally uniform, engineered geometry across letters and numerals.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, event graphics, and sports or automotive-themed branding. It can also work for packaging and promotional copy where a fast, condensed look helps conserve space while staying attention-grabbing. For longer passages, it will be most effective in larger sizes where the tight counters and strong contrast remain clear.
The overall tone is energetic and assertive, evoking motorsport, athletics, and streamlined industrial design. Its slant and condensed build communicate motion and urgency, while the rounded corners keep the voice approachable rather than harsh. The contrast and cut terminals add a slightly retro, poster-like flair.
The design appears aimed at delivering a compact, high-energy italic sans for display typography, balancing a streamlined, speed-inspired silhouette with enough rounding and consistency to stay legible in punchy blocks of text.
The caps and figures feel particularly punchy, with compact apertures and a strong silhouette that holds up well at larger sizes. Diagonal cuts and notched joins show up repeatedly, giving the face a distinctive, performance-oriented texture in continuous text.
