A heavy, condensed oblique sans with tall proportions and a tight internal economy. Strokes are broadly uniform, producing a dense, poster-ready color with minimal modulation. Curves and corners tend toward rounded-rectangle geometry, giving counters in letters like O, D, and P a squarish-superelliptical feel rather than purely circular forms. Terminals are clean and blunt, joins are compact, and the overall rhythm is fast and forward-leaning, with a consistent rightward slant across capitals, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and display typography where compact width and strong slant help fit more characters while retaining punch. It works well for sports and action-oriented branding, energetic packaging, and promotional graphics that need a forceful, condensed voice.
The font projects speed and intensity, combining a compressed silhouette with a strong slant for a distinctly energetic voice. Its chunky, squared-round shapes feel contemporary and utilitarian, suggesting performance, motion, and impact rather than delicacy or warmth.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in limited horizontal space, pairing a bold, condensed build with an oblique angle for motion and urgency. Rounded-rectangle construction keeps shapes sturdy and modern, optimizing the face for attention-grabbing display use.
The narrow set widths and tight counters create a high-ink, high-contrast-in-space appearance that favors short lines and large sizes. Rounded-rectangular bowls keep the style cohesive across letters and figures, while the slant amplifies a sense of momentum in all-caps and mixed-case settings.
