A compact, heavy sans with a consistent forward slant and tightly packed proportions. Letterforms are built from rounded-rectangle geometry: curved shapes read as soft superellipses while corners on diagonals feel clipped and purposeful, producing a sturdy, streamlined silhouette. Strokes are broadly uniform with minimal contrast, and counters are relatively small, reinforcing a dense, high-impact texture. The overall rhythm is brisk and mechanical, with short joins and firm terminals that stay clean even at large display sizes.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as headlines, posters, sports and event branding, packaging callouts, and promotional graphics where a strong, condensed voice is needed. It can also work for labels, signage, and UI highlights when used sparingly at larger sizes with generous spacing.
The font conveys speed and force—confident, athletic, and slightly aggressive in tone. Its slanted posture and dense color give it a dynamic, headline-ready energy that feels contemporary and utilitarian rather than refined or delicate.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact in minimal horizontal space, combining a condensed footprint with rounded-rectilinear construction and an energetic slant. It prioritizes bold presence and fast readability for display settings over nuanced typographic softness.
Round characters (like O, C, and G) retain a squarish, engineered roundness, which helps the design feel cohesive across curves and straight strokes. The figures are similarly robust and compact, suited to bold numeric emphasis in layouts where space is tight.
