A heavy, tightly condensed oblique sans with compact proportions and a uniform, low-contrast stroke. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, giving bowls and counters a squarish, softened feel rather than true circularity. Terminals are mostly blunt with subtly rounded corners, and the overall rhythm is vertical and dense, with narrow apertures and counters that stay open enough for display use. Numerals and capitals match the same compressed, forward-leaning stance, producing a strong, consistent silhouette across the set.
Best suited to headlines, hero copy, posters, and branding where compact width and maximum impact are useful. It can work well on packaging and editorial display applications that need a modern, energetic voice, especially where horizontal space is limited.
The tone is forceful and energetic, with a fast, forward motion from the oblique slant and a confident, poster-ready darkness from the weight. It reads as contemporary and sporty, leaning toward an industrial, no-nonsense attitude rather than a friendly or literary voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a high-impact condensed display voice with a built-in sense of motion. Its rounded-rectangle construction suggests a goal of combining industrial solidity with smoother, contemporary edges for bold, attention-first typography.
The condensed width and heavy color create strong word-shapes but can crowd spacing in longer lines, making it most comfortable at larger sizes. The superelliptical rounding keeps the letterforms from feeling harsh, even with the dense black presence.
