A heavy, right-slanted sans with compact proportions and rounded outer curves paired with crisp, angled terminals. Strokes are thick and consistent in presence, with counters kept relatively tight, giving the letters a dense, energetic color on the line. The italics feel built-in rather than simply skewed: diagonals are emphasized, joins are firm, and bowls stay smooth and stable. Numerals match the same robust, forward-leaning construction, with rounded forms and strong weight concentration.
Best suited to large-scale applications where a bold, kinetic voice is needed—headlines, posters, sports or fitness branding, packaging callouts, and social media advertising. In longer passages it will read as intense and space-filling, making it more effective for short bursts of text and emphasis than for extended body copy.
The overall tone is assertive and fast, with a sporty, headline-driven energy. Its bold slant reads as dynamic and promotional, projecting confidence and momentum rather than restraint or delicacy.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a forward-leaning stance, combining rounded construction with angular cuts for speed and punch. It aims for strong legibility at display sizes while maintaining a cohesive, contemporary rhythm across letters and numbers.
Round letters like O and Q appear slightly squashed to maintain a compact rhythm, and the uppercase set feels especially strong and poster-ready. The lowercase includes single-storey forms and simplified shapes that prioritize impact and quick recognition at larger sizes.
