A compact, slanted sans with heavy, uniform strokes and tightly controlled spacing. Letterforms favor rounded-rectangle geometry: bowls and counters are squarish with softened corners, while terminals are clean and mostly flat, keeping the texture dense and even. The oblique angle is pronounced and consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals, producing a forward-leaning rhythm. Curves (C, O, S) stay broad and sturdy, and the numerals echo the same rounded, blocky construction for a cohesive set.
Best used at medium to large sizes where its dense strokes and condensed footprint can deliver maximum impact—headlines, poster typography, promotional graphics, and bold brand moments. It also works well for short bursts of text such as calls-to-action, labels, and punchy subheads where a fast, athletic feel is desired.
The overall tone is fast, forceful, and contemporary, with a confident “go” energy suited to attention-grabbing messages. Its dense black presence and forward slant read as competitive and action-oriented rather than delicate or formal.
The font appears designed to deliver high-impact communication with a streamlined, forward-leaning voice. Its rounded-rectangular construction and consistent weight suggest an emphasis on clarity and cohesion in loud display settings rather than nuanced text typography.
The design’s superelliptical rounding keeps the heavy weight from feeling harsh, while the condensed proportions help pack more impact into limited horizontal space. The texture remains consistent in longer lines, emphasizing bold shapes over fine detail.
