A condensed, forward-leaning sans with compact proportions and a tightly paced rhythm. Strokes are solid and consistent, with rounded-rectangle counters and softened corners that keep the forms smooth even at heavy weights. Curves feel slightly flattened into superelliptical shapes, while diagonals and terminals are clean and blunt, creating crisp silhouettes in narrow widths. The lowercase is tall relative to the ascenders/descenders, and the numerals follow the same narrow, slanted construction for a unified texture in text.
Best suited to display settings where a compact, high-impact voice is needed—posters, headlines, promos, and sports or event branding. It can also work for packaging and short, emphatic UI or signage labels where space is limited and a strong, dynamic presence is desired.
The strong slant and compressed build give it a sense of speed and pressure—more dynamic than neutral. It reads as assertive and contemporary, with a sporty, attention-grabbing tone that suggests motion and urgency rather than calm editorial refinement.
The design appears aimed at maximizing impact in narrow horizontal space while preserving smooth, contemporary curves. Its consistent stroke structure and rounded-rectangle geometry suggest an intention to balance speed and legibility in bold, slanted display typography.
In the text sample, word shapes stay dark and compact, producing a continuous, poster-like color that emphasizes momentum. The rounded-rectangle bowls and counters help maintain clarity despite the tight width, especially in curved letters and numerals.
