A heavy, condensed sans with a consistent reverse slant and a block-built, rounded-rectangle construction. Curves are minimized in favor of squared counters and softened corners, giving letters a compact, machined feel. Strokes stay broadly uniform, terminals are blunt, and joins are tight, producing dense word shapes with strong vertical rhythm and minimal internal whitespace. The numerals and capitals read as sturdy and geometric, while the lowercase maintains a tall, upright structure that keeps text lines visually full and punchy.
Best suited for short, high-impact text such as posters, headlines, event graphics, sports branding, packaging callouts, and bold signage. It can work for display paragraphs when set large with extra spacing, but it is not optimized for small-size, information-dense reading.
The overall tone is forceful and energetic, with a sporty, street-sign immediacy. Its compressed, forward-leaning stance and chunky silhouettes suggest urgency and impact rather than delicacy or warmth.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch in a compact footprint, combining a condensed build with rounded-rectangle geometry and a reverse-leaning stance for distinctive motion and attitude.
Because counters are tight and the mass is high, it performs best when given ample tracking and generous line spacing. The reverse slant creates a distinctive motion effect that becomes especially noticeable in long lines and all-caps settings.
