A condensed, oblique sans with heavy, compact strokes and rounded-rectangle construction. Curves resolve into softened corners rather than true circular bowls, giving counters a tall, superelliptical feel. Stems are firm and fairly uniform, with subtle modulation at joins and terminals; many endings taper slightly into curved, bracket-like cuts that keep the dense weight from feeling blunt. The rhythm is tight and upright in structure but forward-leaning in posture, producing a strong vertical presence with crisp, high-contrast negative space in narrow apertures.
Best suited to headlines, posters, packaging, and branding where a condensed, high-impact voice is needed. It works well for sports and lifestyle graphics, event promotions, and logo wordmarks that benefit from a forward-leaning, energetic stance. Use at medium to large sizes for maximum clarity and to let the rounded geometry read cleanly.
The overall tone is energetic and assertive, with a retro-industrial flavor that reads as fast, bold, and promotional. Its rounded geometry adds friendliness to the otherwise hard-working, condensed silhouette, making it feel sporty and poster-ready rather than purely utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in limited horizontal space while maintaining a softened, modernist geometry. Its superelliptical construction and curved terminals suggest a deliberate blend of industrial sturdiness with approachable, retro-inflected style.
Distinctive, somewhat idiosyncratic shapes—especially in the diagonals and curved letters—create a display-forward personality. Numerals are tall and sturdy with the same softened-rectangle logic, supporting bold, attention-grabbing settings. The italic slant and compressed width increase momentum, but also make long passages feel intense, favoring short bursts of text.
