A condensed oblique sans with heavy, uniform strokes and squared-round (superellipse) curves throughout. The design favors upright-sided bowls and rounded-rectangle counters, giving letters a tight, engineered geometry rather than soft humanist modulation. Terminals are mostly blunt with subtly softened corners, and the overall rhythm is compact with short extenders and minimal interior apertures, producing a dense, forward-leaning texture in text. Numerals and capitals follow the same squarish rounding, maintaining consistent corner radii and a sturdy, monoline build.
Best suited for headlines, short bursts of copy, and display settings where a compact, energetic voice is useful. It fits well in sports and performance branding, tech or UI-forward marketing, packaging, and signage that benefits from a streamlined, modern texture. For longer text, it works most comfortably at larger sizes where the tight counters and condensed rhythm remain clear.
The overall tone is fast and purposeful, with a contemporary, performance-driven feel. Its forward slant and compact width suggest motion and efficiency, while the rounded-rectangular shaping adds a sleek, slightly futuristic edge. The weight and tight spacing read as confident and impactful rather than delicate or conversational.
The design appears intended to deliver a high-impact, space-efficient oblique sans with a controlled, superelliptical geometry. Its consistent rounded-rectangle construction and uniform stroke weight suggest a focus on contemporary branding and display versatility where a fast, technical impression is desirable.
In the sample text the condensed, oblique construction creates a strong diagonal flow across lines, and the squarish roundness keeps curves feeling controlled and machined. Counters remain relatively tight in several forms, so the face presents best where bold presence is desired over maximum openness.
