A slanted, condensed sans with sturdy, slightly squared forms and softened corners. Strokes show controlled thick–thin modulation, especially where curves meet diagonals, giving a brisk, engineered rhythm rather than a purely monoline look. Counters are compact and apertures tend to be tight, while terminals are clean and blunt. Uppercase shapes lean geometric with a forward-tilted stance; lowercase follows the same oblique construction with single-storey a and g and a generally compact, upright interior structure. Numerals are similarly narrow and dynamic, with simplified, high-contrast silhouettes that read as streamlined in display sizes.
Well suited to headlines, posters, packaging, and branding where a sense of speed and impact is desired. It also fits tech, automotive, sports, and esports identities, as well as UI callouts or labels when used at larger sizes with a bit of extra letterspacing.
The overall tone is fast, modern, and performance-minded, with a distinct forward motion from the consistent slant and condensed proportions. It suggests speed, precision, and a slightly futuristic, techno-athletic attitude rather than a neutral editorial voice.
The font appears designed to deliver a high-impact, forward-leaning voice with compact width and confident presence. Its mix of condensed geometry and controlled contrast aims to balance aggressive display energy with enough structure to stay legible in short to medium-length text.
The italic construction is integral to the design (not just an oblique), and the condensed width plus tight internal spaces creates a dense texture in longer lines. The design reads best when given enough size or tracking so the narrow counters and sharp diagonals don’t visually clog in small settings.
