A heavy, right-slanted sans with compact proportions and rounded-rectangle geometry throughout. Strokes are uniformly thick with minimal contrast, and terminals tend to be cleanly cut or softly squared, giving counters a superelliptical, squared-off roundness. Curves on letters like C, O, and S feel tightened and boxy rather than fully circular, while verticals and diagonals stay crisp for a strong, steady rhythm. Numerals and capitals read sturdy and engineered, with tight apertures and consistent, high-impact color on the page.
Best suited to short, high-visibility settings where a strong, fast look is helpful—headlines, display typography, promotional graphics, sports and fitness branding, and bold packaging callouts. In longer passages it will create a dense, emphatic texture, so it works most comfortably when set with generous leading and spacing.
The overall tone is energetic and forward-leaning, with a muscular, performance-oriented presence. Its slant and compact shapes suggest speed and momentum, while the dense weight and squared-round forms keep it feeling controlled and modern rather than playful.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum impact with a streamlined, aerodynamic feel. By combining a strong slant, compact forms, and rounded-rectangle shaping, it aims for a contemporary display voice that reads quickly and projects momentum.
The design maintains a consistent angular-sans skeleton with softened corners, producing a slightly condensed, punchy texture in text. The italic is more of an oblique slant than a calligraphic construction, reinforcing a mechanical, headline-driven character.
