A condensed oblique sans with a taut, forward-leaning stance and a distinctly squared-round (superellipse) construction. Strokes are heavy with noticeable modulation and crisp terminals, while corners are generously rounded, giving counters a rounded-rectangle feel. The rhythm is compact and vertical, with tall, narrow capitals and tightly drawn bowls that keep word shapes dense. Several joins and inner corners show small notches or angled cut-ins that read like subtle ink-trap detailing, adding definition at tight apertures and improving separation in the densest areas. Numerals follow the same compressed, slanted logic, keeping a uniform, display-oriented texture across mixed text.
Best suited to short-form, high-impact settings such as headlines, poster typography, sports or racing-themed branding, and bold titling on packaging or signage. It also works well for logotypes and wordmarks where a condensed, forward-leaning silhouette helps maximize presence in limited horizontal space.
The overall tone is fast and punchy, with an aerodynamic, engineered flavor that suggests motion and urgency. Its squared curves and sharp detailing evoke a sporty, industrial confidence with a slight retro signage vibe.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact and speed in a compact footprint, combining squared-round geometry with crisp modulation to stay legible while maintaining a distinctive, performance-oriented voice.
The slant is consistent and pronounced, creating strong directional flow in lines of text. Rounded-rectangular counters and narrowed apertures give the face a compact color that can feel intense at smaller sizes, while the crisp edges and notched joins keep forms from blurring together in heavier settings.
