A compact, right-slanted sans with heavy strokes and tightly set proportions. Letterforms are built from broad, rounded-rectangle curves paired with straight, angled terminals, creating a streamlined, slightly mechanical rhythm. Counters are relatively small for the weight, and spacing reads tight but controlled, helping the shapes lock together in headlines. Numerals are similarly condensed and sturdy, maintaining the same forward-leaning posture and rounded geometry.
Best suited to display settings where density and impact matter—headlines, posters, promotional graphics, and bold brand lockups. It can work for short bursts of text (taglines, calls-to-action, navigation labels) where a compact italic emphasis helps guide the eye.
The overall tone is energetic and forceful, with a forward-leaning stance that suggests speed and momentum. Its compact build and dense color give it a confident, no-nonsense voice suited to attention-grabbing messaging.
Designed to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space, combining rounded-rect forms with a consistent slant to project speed and contemporary strength. The goal appears to be a clean, modern display voice that stays readable while feeling compressed and dynamic.
Round letters like O/C/G lean toward squarish superellipse silhouettes rather than pure circles, which reinforces the font’s structured, engineered feel. The italic angle is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, helping mixed-case text keep a cohesive flow.
