A heavy, oblique sans with rounded-rectangle (superellipse) counters and a compact, muscular build. Strokes are thick with clean, largely monoline behavior, while joins and apertures show subtle notch-like relief that reads like mild ink-trap shaping at tight corners. Curves are broad and squarish rather than fully circular, giving letters a sturdy, engineered feel. Terminals are mostly flat and direct, and the overall rhythm is tight and forward-leaning, with consistently large interior shapes that keep forms open despite the weight.
Best suited to short, prominent text such as headlines, posters, sports or event branding, and impactful packaging. It also works well for large-format signage where a compact, forward-leaning emphasis is desired, and for punchy subheads or callouts paired with a calmer text face.
The tone is assertive and high-impact, with a fast, athletic slant and bold, poster-ready presence. Its rounded geometry softens the aggression slightly, creating a modern, energetic voice that feels action-oriented and promotional.
Designed to deliver maximum impact with a forward-moving slant and rounded-rectangular construction, balancing forceful weight with open counters for clarity. The shaping suggests an emphasis on durability and reproduction-friendly forms in bold display contexts.
Uppercase forms are strong and simplified, while lowercase remains highly legible with generous counters and minimal ornament. Numerals match the same blocky, rounded geometry, maintaining a cohesive texture in mixed alphanumeric settings.
