This typeface is a condensed, heavy oblique sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. Strokes are largely monolinear, with a strong forward slant and compact sidebearings that create a tight, rhythmic texture in text. Curves (C, O, S, 0) read as squarish rounds, while diagonals (A, V, W, X, Y) are sturdy and steep, giving the design a muscular, compressed silhouette. Counters are relatively small for the weight, and terminals are clean and blunt rather than tapered.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as headlines, poster typography, apparel graphics, logos, and packaging where a compact, forceful voice is needed. It can also work for subheads or callouts when paired with a calmer text face, but its density and slant make it more effective in display than in long reading.
The overall tone is bold and kinetic, with a punchy, competitive feel reminiscent of athletic branding and high-impact headlines. Its compressed proportions and aggressive slant add urgency and motion, while the rounded geometry keeps it approachable rather than sharp or industrial.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space, combining an oblique stance with rounded, superelliptical forms for a fast, contemporary feel. Its simplified, sturdy shapes prioritize immediacy and recognizability in branding and headline contexts.
In the sample text, the strong slant and tight spacing create a dark, continuous typographic color that holds together well at display sizes. Letterforms like the single-storey a and g, plus the simplified numerals, reinforce a straightforward, modernized-retro character. The ampersand is compact and heavy, matching the font’s dense texture.
