A compact, strongly slanted sans with tightly drawn proportions and a forward-leaning rhythm. Strokes are uniform and heavy, with crisp terminals and squared-off, slightly rounded corners that keep counters clean at small sizes. Curves are restrained and controlled, giving rounded letters a subtly squared, superellipse-like feel. Spacing is economical and the overall silhouette reads tall and compressed, with consistent stroke behavior across capitals, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, and short informational lines where a dense, high-impact texture is desirable. It performs well in sports and performance branding, editorial callouts, packaging, and UI/wayfinding labels that need to fit into narrow columns or constrained spaces while still reading with authority.
The font projects speed and efficiency, with a no-nonsense, performance-oriented tone. Its condensed stance and aggressive slant create a sense of motion that feels contemporary and utilitarian rather than friendly or decorative.
Likely designed to deliver maximum visual impact in minimal horizontal space, pairing a forceful slant with sturdy, simplified shapes for fast scanning. The controlled, squared-rounded construction suggests an intention to feel engineered and contemporary while remaining practical for display-led typography.
Capitals maintain a disciplined, engineered geometry, while the lowercase retains clear, simple forms that stay legible under the strong slant. Numerals follow the same compact logic, appearing built for quick recognition in tight layouts. The overall texture on a line is dense and dark, producing high impact in short bursts of text.
