A heavy, oblique sans with compact proportions and rounded-rectangle construction. Strokes are thick and uniform, with softened corners and broadly oval counters that keep shapes open despite the weight. Terminals are mostly blunt and squared-off, while curves (notably in O/C/G and the bowls) feel superelliptical rather than purely circular. The overall rhythm is tight and sturdy, with slightly condensed letterforms and stable, geometric spacing.
Performs best in short, high-contrast applications such as headlines, posters, and promotional graphics where a strong silhouette is desirable. It also suits sports branding, event titles, packaging callouts, and bold signage, especially when set with generous tracking or ample line spacing to avoid crowding in dense text.
The tone is loud and energetic, projecting strength and motion through its consistent slant and dense black texture. It reads as modern and utilitarian, with a sporty, attention-grabbing presence suited to emphatic messaging.
Likely designed to deliver maximum visual impact with a cohesive, rounded-geometric skeleton and a continuous forward slant. The emphasis appears to be on bold, fast, and modern communication—prioritizing strong word shapes and a solid typographic color for display settings.
Uppercase forms are muscular and simplified, with minimal internal detailing; diagonals (A, V, W, X, Y) are broad and confident. Lowercase maintains the same compact, rounded-block logic, producing a uniform, high-impact texture in words. Numerals are similarly chunky and oblique, optimized for bold display rather than delicate differentiation at small sizes.
