A heavy, condensed sans with a consistent left-leaning slant and compact, rectangular construction. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle forms, producing superelliptical bowls and counters that feel sturdy rather than delicate. Strokes are broadly uniform with minimal contrast, and terminals are mostly blunt with softened corners. The lowercase is tall and compact, with tight apertures and strong, dense word shapes; numerals follow the same chunky, slightly tilted rhythm for a unified texture in lines of text.
Best suited to headlines, large captions, posters, and brand marks where condensed width and strong mass improve impact in limited space. It can also work for packaging callouts and energetic editorial display, especially where a dynamic, slanted voice is desired over long-form readability.
The overall tone is bold and insistent, with a forward-leaning energy that reads as dynamic and slightly retro. Its compact massing and blunt shapes give it a utilitarian, poster-like confidence, suggesting speed, impact, and attention-grabbing emphasis rather than quiet neutrality.
The design appears intended as a space-efficient display sans that maximizes visual weight while maintaining rounded, geometric coherence. The consistent slant and superelliptical shaping suggest a goal of creating forward motion and high shelf/scroll presence for attention-led typography.
The pronounced slant combined with narrow proportions creates a lively, compressed cadence across text, making spacing and rhythm feel intentionally tight and pressurized. Round letters like O/Q and bowl forms in B/P/R stay smooth and squarish, keeping the style cohesive between uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
