A tightly condensed, tall sans with heavy, uniform strokes and gently rounded-rectangle (superellipse) counters. The design uses an oblique stance with mostly straight, vertical strokes and compact bowls, producing a strong vertical rhythm. Terminals are clean and blunt, and curves are simplified into smooth, squared-off arcs, keeping letterforms sturdy and graphic. Numerals follow the same narrow, elongated proportions for consistent color in text and display lines.
Best suited to display settings where space is tight and impact is critical: headlines, posters, cover lines, and bold branding. It also works well for sports and event graphics, packaging callouts, and short emphatic statements where a dense, vertical rhythm helps the layout feel energetic and compact.
The overall tone is assertive and kinetic, with a forward-leaning posture that feels fast and attention-grabbing. Its compressed width and bold presence evoke poster lettering, sports graphics, and punchy headline typography with a slightly retro-industrial edge.
This font appears designed to deliver maximum emphasis in a narrow footprint, combining a forward-leaning stance with rounded-rectangle construction for a modern, graphic feel. The consistent, simplified shapes suggest an intention to stay robust and legible in large-scale applications while maintaining a distinctive condensed voice.
In longer lines the condensed proportions create a dense typographic texture, while the rounded-rect geometry keeps the shapes from feeling harsh. The narrow apertures and compact counters emphasize impact over airy readability, especially at smaller sizes.
