A heavy, slanted sans with rounded construction and a compact, punchy silhouette. Curves are full and smooth, with broadly consistent stroke weight and minimal modulation, while terminals tend to be clean and slightly softened rather than sharp. Counters are relatively tight and apertures lean toward closed, giving the face a dense, poster-ready texture. The italic angle is pronounced and consistent across capitals, lowercase, and figures, producing a fast, forward-leaning rhythm.
Best suited to headlines and short statements where weight and slant can carry emphasis—posters, sports or event branding, packaging callouts, and attention-grabbing signage. It can work in large-size display copy where dense letterforms and tight counters remain clear, especially when ample line spacing is provided.
The overall tone is energetic and assertive, with a sporty, action-oriented feel. Its rounded shapes keep the voice friendly and approachable despite the strong weight, making it read as confident rather than severe.
This design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a forward-leaning, energetic stance while keeping forms rounded and accessible. The combination of bold massing and smooth geometry suggests a focus on modern display use where momentum and clarity are more important than typographic delicacy.
The uppercase set feels sturdy and geometric, while the lowercase adds a touch of bounce through rounded bowls and compact joins. Numerals share the same forward slant and bold mass, reinforcing a cohesive, high-impact color in running text and headlines.
