A heavy, oblique sans with compact proportions and a forward-leaning stance. Strokes are thick with gently rounded corners and subtly tapered joins that create a lively, slightly calligraphic rhythm without adding true serifs. Counters are relatively tight in letters like O, P, and e, while terminals tend to be clean and sheared, reinforcing the slanted, energetic construction. The lowercase shows a tall, sturdy structure with simplified forms and minimal detailing, and the numerals are similarly weighty and compact for strong presence.
Best suited to display roles where maximum emphasis is needed—headlines, posters, sports and event branding, packaging callouts, and promotional graphics. It can work for short subheads or labels, but long text blocks may feel dense due to the tight internal space and strong slant.
The overall tone is bold and kinetic, projecting speed and impact. Its slant and tight spacing cues feel athletic and promotional, with an assertive voice that reads as modern and action-oriented rather than restrained or editorial.
The design appears intended to deliver instant, high-impact messaging with a fast, forward motion. It prioritizes presence and momentum over neutrality, using oblique geometry and compact, weighty forms to stay legible and loud in branding and advertising contexts.
Diagonal shapes (V, W, X, Y) feel especially forceful due to the combination of steep slant and heavy strokes. At smaller sizes the dense counters and compact apertures may darken, while at display sizes the crisp sheared terminals and rounded massing become a defining characteristic.
