A condensed, forward-slanted display face with strong vertical emphasis and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, giving bowls and counters a squarish softness while maintaining crisp edges. Strokes taper noticeably into narrow joints and terminals, with occasional small notches and tight apertures that sharpen the rhythm. Capitals feel tall and compact; lowercase forms are similarly tight, with a single-storey “a” and a looped, descender-heavy “g,” and numerals that are upright in structure but dynamically slanted with the overall texture.
Best suited to headlines, cover lines, and short editorial statements where a compact footprint and high-impact texture are desirable. It can also work for sports, fitness, and product branding that benefits from speed and intensity, while longer paragraphs will typically need generous size and leading to stay open and readable.
The overall tone is fast, assertive, and contemporary—more athletic and headline-driven than conversational. The steep slant and condensed stance create a sense of motion and urgency, while the rounded-rectilinear curves keep it sleek rather than aggressive.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a tight horizontal space, pairing a dynamic slant with sculpted, high-contrast strokes and rounded-rectilinear curves for a modern, performance-oriented voice.
In text settings the dark, continuous color reads strong and punchy, with tight spacing and narrow counters that can close up at smaller sizes. The ampersand and punctuation adopt the same compact, energetic stance, supporting punchy titling and short bursts of copy.
