A heavy, oblique sans with broad proportions and rounded-rectangle construction throughout. Curves read as superelliptical rather than circular, giving bowls and counters a soft, blocky feel; strokes stay largely uniform with minimal modulation. Terminals are clean and blunt, and the overall rhythm is compact and dense, with a tall lowercase presence that keeps words dark and highly legible at display sizes. Numerals and capitals share the same wide, sturdy build, creating a cohesive, poster-ready texture.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and promotional layouts where a strong, fast visual hit is needed. It works well for sports and streetwear-style branding, packaging callouts, and bold logo wordmarks that benefit from wide, rounded forms. In longer passages it will feel intense, so it’s most effective as a display face or for short, emphatic text.
The tone is assertive and kinetic, with a forward-leaning stance that suggests motion and urgency. Its rounded geometry tempers the mass, keeping the voice friendly rather than aggressive, while still feeling bold and attention-grabbing. The overall impression leans toward contemporary sports branding and punchy promotional typography.
Likely designed to deliver maximum impact with a streamlined, geometric construction and a clear sense of forward motion. The rounded-rectangle shapes aim to balance strength with approachability, producing a modern display sans that reads quickly and holds up well at large sizes.
The slant is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, and the rounded-square logic is especially apparent in bowls like O/o and counters in letters such as e and a. The heavy weight produces strong word shapes, but the dense, dark color is best suited to short lines and prominent settings where impact is the priority.
