A tightly condensed, sharply slanted sans with tall proportions and compact counters. Strokes stay fairly uniform, with rounded-rectangle curves and squarish bowls that keep the silhouette blocky even in letters like O, C, and G. Terminals are mostly straight and clean, corners are subtly softened, and the overall rhythm is vertical and compressed, producing dense word shapes with strong forward lean.
Best suited to display roles where condensed width and a strong slant help fit more characters while staying loud—headlines, posters, event graphics, and sports or motorsport-style branding. It can work for short bursts of copy (taglines, calls to action) where a forceful, kinetic voice is desired.
The overall tone feels fast, assertive, and engineered—more about speed and impact than warmth. Its compressed stance and italic angle evoke motion and urgency, lending a sporty, poster-like energy with a slightly industrial edge.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space, pairing a pronounced slant with squared, softened curves for a modern, speed-oriented look. It prioritizes bold presence and directional momentum over neutrality, aiming to stand out in branding and promotional typography.
The numerals and capitals read as particularly tall and narrow, giving headlines a stacked, high-tension texture. Round letters keep a squarish inner shape, and the consistent slant helps lines of text feel cohesive and directional.
