A condensed, oblique sans with compact proportions and a steady, monoline feel. Curves and counters are built from softened, superelliptic shapes rather than perfect circles, giving round letters a slightly squared, streamlined silhouette. Terminals are smoothly rounded and joins stay clean and sturdy, producing a dense, even color in text. The overall rhythm is tight and upright in structure but consistently slanted, with open apertures and simplified forms that stay legible despite the narrow width.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, and short bursts of copy where a narrow, fast-leaning voice helps conserve space and add impact. It can work well in branding and packaging that want a streamlined, energetic sans, and in sports or event graphics where motion and density are assets.
The tone reads brisk and forward-leaning, with a sporty, display-driven confidence. Its softened geometry keeps it approachable, while the condensed stance and italic motion add urgency and momentum that feels retro yet functional.
The design appears intended to deliver an italicized, space-saving sans with a friendly geometric finish—pairing condensed efficiency with rounded superelliptic forms for strong readability and a distinctive, contemporary-leaning retro flavor.
Uppercase forms are tall and compact with generous rounding at corners, while lowercase remains clear and workmanlike, with single-story shapes where expected and straightforward, unembellished construction. Numerals match the same compact, rounded-rect geometry, keeping headlines and mixed-content settings visually cohesive.
