A condensed, forward-leaning sans with compact proportions and rounded, superellipse-like curves. Strokes are thick and largely uniform, producing a dense, high-impact color, while counters stay relatively tight in letters like B, P, and a. The italic slant is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and figures, and the overall construction favors straight, slightly tapered stems with rounded terminals for a streamlined silhouette. Spacing appears snug, emphasizing vertical rhythm and a tall, stacked texture in text.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, sports and fitness branding, and bold promotional messaging. It also fits packaging and signage where a compact, energetic italic can carry across limited horizontal space.
The tone is assertive and kinetic, with an engineered, performance-oriented feel. Its slanted stance and compact width create a sense of speed and pressure, reading as contemporary and no-nonsense rather than decorative or delicate.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence in a tight width while maintaining smooth, rounded geometry and a consistent italic momentum. It prioritizes speed, clarity at display sizes, and a cohesive, modern texture across letters and numbers.
The capitals are tall and narrow with simplified internal shapes, and the figures follow the same condensed, slanted logic for cohesive numerals in headlines. Round letters (C, G, O, Q) look more like rounded rectangles than circles, reinforcing a technical, machined personality.
