A condensed, right-slanted sans with compact proportions and rounded-rectangle (superelliptic) curves throughout. Strokes are sturdy and fairly uniform, with gently softened terminals and a consistent forward rhythm that reads smoothly in lines of text. Counters are tight but clear, and the overall construction favors simplified, geometric shapes with a slightly squared roundness in letters like O/C and in numerals.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings where the tight width and italic momentum can add drive—headlines, posters, sports and automotive branding, packaging callouts, and directional or retail signage. It can work in brief text blocks when sizes and spacing allow the condensed counters to stay open.
The strong slant and compact build give it a fast, sporty tone with a lightly retro, signage-like feel. It communicates urgency and motion while staying clean and controlled rather than decorative.
Designed to deliver a compact, motion-forward sans that feels modern yet familiar, using softened superelliptic curves to keep the bold, condensed forms approachable and cohesive in display typography.
Uppercase forms feel tall and streamlined, while lowercase keeps a practical, readable structure with restrained detailing. Numerals follow the same condensed, rounded-rect geometry, maintaining a cohesive texture across mixed alphanumeric settings.
