A condensed oblique sans with squared-off, superellipse-like bowls and consistently rounded corners. Strokes are heavy and even, with minimal contrast and a compact, upright rhythm despite the strong slant. Counters are relatively tight and vertical stems dominate, giving the design a streamlined, space-efficient texture. Terminals are mostly blunt and softly squared, and the figures follow the same rounded-rectangle logic for a cohesive, engineered feel.
Best suited for headlines, short bursts of copy, and prominent labeling where compact width and strong presence are desirable. It works well for sports and tech branding, event graphics, packaging callouts, and UI/UX labels or navigation elements that benefit from a condensed footprint. For longer text, it will be most comfortable at larger sizes where the tight counters and strong slant remain easy to parse.
The overall tone is fast and assertive, with a “performance” flavor that reads as contemporary and technical. Its condensed, slanted stance suggests motion and urgency, while the rounded-square shaping keeps it friendly rather than aggressive. The result feels suited to bold, modern messaging where impact and pace matter.
This font appears designed to deliver high-impact, space-saving typography with a modern, motion-forward character. The consistent rounded-rectangle forms and heavy, even strokes suggest an intention toward clear signage-like clarity and brandable display use, balancing speed and friendliness through its oblique stance and softened corners.
The design maintains a disciplined geometry across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, producing a uniform color in text. The oblique angle is pronounced enough to signal emphasis on its own, and the compact widths make it effective when horizontal space is limited. The squared-round construction is especially noticeable in letters like C, O, S and in the numerals, reinforcing a consistent superellipse theme.
