A condensed oblique sans with monolinear strokes and smooth, squared-round (superelliptic) curves. Counters are compact and apertures stay fairly open despite the narrow set, giving letters a taut, upright rhythm even with the strong slant. Terminals are clean and mostly straight-cut, and round characters (like O/0) read as rounded rectangles rather than perfect circles. Overall spacing is tight and the forms feel engineered and consistent, with small, practical details in joins and shoulders that prioritize clarity at speed.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings where its compressed width and slanted stance can add impact—headlines, posters, sports or activewear identities, packaging callouts, and promotional or campaign graphics. It can also work for UI labels or navigational elements when space is limited, provided sizes and spacing are tuned for legibility.
The heavy forward slant and compressed proportions create a sense of motion and urgency, with a contemporary, performance-minded tone. It feels confident and streamlined, leaning toward sporty branding and punchy editorial display rather than quiet, bookish text.
Likely designed to deliver a fast, space-saving display voice: condensed geometry, superelliptic rounds, and a pronounced oblique angle combine to create a modern, high-energy style that stays clean and readable under tight horizontal constraints.
Capitals are tall and narrow, producing a strong vertical cadence; numerals match this condensed, oblique stance for cohesive set-wide color. In longer samples, the slant and tight fit amplify momentum, so line spacing and tracking become important for comfortable reading in paragraph settings.
