A heavy, right-slanted sans with compact proportions and smooth, rounded curve construction. Strokes are sturdy and even, with blunt terminals and tight apertures that keep counters relatively small in letters like a, e, and s. The italic angle is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, creating a forward-leaning rhythm. Overall spacing reads slightly condensed and dense, producing strong color in text and high impact in display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, short statements, and branding where a forceful, fast-forward voice is desired. It can work for packaging and signage that needs immediate visibility, and for UI or marketing callouts when used with generous size and spacing.
The face projects speed and urgency, with a sporty, performance-minded tone. Its dense weight and steady slant feel confident and modern, leaning toward industrial and athletic branding rather than quiet editorial refinement.
The design appears intended as a high-impact italic sans that communicates motion and strength while staying clean and geometric. It prioritizes bold, compact shapes and consistent slant for a unified, energetic texture across letters and numbers.
The numerals appear robust and simple, matching the letterforms’ compact, rounded geometry. In continuous text the combination of strong weight, tight counters, and slant emphasizes momentum and intensity, which can reduce openness at smaller sizes but strengthens presence in headlines.
