A tightly condensed, forward-leaning sans with monoline strokes and rounded, superellipse-like curves. The letterforms are tall and compact with small counters, giving dense texture and strong vertical rhythm. Shapes stay soft at corners while maintaining crisp terminals, and the overall slant adds continuous motion across words. Uppercase feels narrow and punchy, while lowercase introduces more bouncing forms and occasional descenders, keeping the texture lively.
Best suited to short, prominent text where compact width and forward motion are assets—headlines, posters, event graphics, and logo lockups. It can also work on packaging or apparel-style graphics where an energetic, condensed wordmark is desired.
The face reads fast and animated, with a retro-leaning, sporty attitude. Its compact proportions and consistent slant project urgency and momentum, while the rounded construction keeps the tone friendly rather than aggressive.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space while retaining a friendly, rounded character. Its consistent slant and compact rhythm suggest a focus on display typography that communicates speed and modern retro flair.
In the sample text, spacing appears intentionally tight, producing a packed, headline-driven color. Numerals follow the same narrow, slanted construction, helping mixed text keep a unified cadence.
