A tightly condensed, forward-slanted sans with compact, squared-round (superelliptical) bowls and mostly monoline strokes. Terminals are clean and blunt, and curves resolve into rounded-rectangle geometry rather than circles, giving counters a boxy softness. The rhythm is energetic and punchy, with tall proportions, narrow apertures, and numerals that match the same streamlined, upright-to-oblique construction for a cohesive texture in lines of text.
Best suited to headlines, logos, and short-to-medium display copy where a compressed, high-impact voice is desired. It can work well for sports and motorsport-style graphics, bold editorial callouts, packaging fronts, and wayfinding or labels where space is limited but presence is important.
The overall tone feels fast, assertive, and utilitarian—like performance branding or compressed headlines meant to read at a glance. Its oblique stance and compact width add a sense of motion and urgency, while the rounded-square forms keep it approachable rather than harsh.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space, combining a speed-oriented oblique with softened, superelliptical geometry. It aims for a contemporary display look with retro-industrial cues and consistent, streamlined forms across letters and numerals.
In text, the narrow set and dense vertical strokes create strong word shapes and a dark, continuous color, especially in longer lines. The geometric rounding is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, helping signage-style clarity while maintaining a stylized, engineered personality.
