This typeface is a condensed, oblique sans with rounded, superellipse-like construction. Strokes stay fairly even with minimal contrast, and terminals are consistently softened rather than sharply cut. The curves are compact and boxy-rounded, giving bowls and counters a squarish rhythm, while diagonal strokes carry a forward lean that adds motion. Lowercase forms are simple and modern with single-storey a and g, open apertures, and a compact, efficient footprint; figures follow the same rounded, slightly squared logic for a cohesive texture.
Best suited to headlines, short copy, and brand marks where the oblique stance can convey speed and momentum. It also works well for packaging, labels, and wayfinding-style applications that benefit from compact width and rounded, high-impact letterforms.
The overall tone feels energetic and contemporary with a hint of retro sport and transit signage. Its forward slant and rounded geometry read as approachable and quick, balancing a technical neatness with an informal, human feel.
The design appears intended to deliver a fast, modern voice through a condensed, forward-leaning structure while keeping the forms friendly via rounded, superellipse-derived curves. The consistent stroke weight and softened terminals suggest a focus on clean reproduction and a uniform, graphic texture.
Capitals maintain a clean, streamlined silhouette with generous rounding on corners and a consistent oblique angle across the set. Spacing appears tuned for a tight, economical line, producing a dense but readable color in longer text, especially at display sizes.
