A heavy, slanted sans with broad proportions and a compact interior space. Curves are full and rounded while terminals are clean and mostly squared-off, producing a sturdy, blocky silhouette. The overall rhythm is driven by wide letterforms, tight counters, and smooth, continuous curves, giving the alphabet a cohesive, high-impact texture in text. Numerals follow the same chunky, forward-leaning construction for consistent color and presence.
Best suited for headlines, logos, and short-to-medium display copy where strong, attention-grabbing forms are needed. It works well in brand marks, packaging, and promotional graphics that benefit from a dynamic, sporty tone, and can hold up effectively at large sizes where its compact counters and bold texture become a feature.
The face reads as energetic and assertive, with a forward-leaning stance that suggests motion and emphasis. Its bold, rounded massing feels sporty and promotional, leaning toward a modern-retro headline tone rather than a quiet, editorial voice.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact with a forward-leaning, energetic stance and rounded, sturdy shapes. It prioritizes bold presence and clear, simple silhouettes for display-driven communication.
Round letters (like O, C, and G) are noticeably thick and enclosed, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) stay broad and steady, preserving a uniform, muscular feel. The forward slant is consistent across cases, helping text look dynamic even in short phrases.
