A heavy, right-leaning sans with broad proportions and rounded, compact interior counters. Strokes are largely monolinear but show subtle shaping at joins and terminals, producing soft corners and a slightly sculpted feel rather than purely geometric rigidity. The lowercase is big and sturdy, with short extenders and a dense, blocky color on the line. Several glyphs show small cut-ins and notches at curve-to-stem connections, adding crispness and improving separation in tight, bold shapes.
Best suited for large sizes where its dense weight and forward slant can deliver maximum impact—headlines, posters, event graphics, and bold brand moments. It also fits energetic identities (sports, streetwear, entertainment) and short bursts of copy on packaging or social graphics where a strong, friendly presence is desired.
The overall tone is energetic and assertive, with a sporty, display-first voice. Its rounded massing and oblique stance make it feel fast and friendly rather than formal, leaning toward bold branding and headline impact.
The design appears intended to provide a loud, fast, display-oriented sans that stays legible in extreme weight through compact counters and carefully shaped joins. Its combination of wide stance, oblique momentum, and softened corners suggests a goal of balancing toughness with approachability.
The numerals and key lowercase forms maintain a consistent forward slant and compact apertures, yielding a cohesive, high-impact rhythm in text. Round letters like o/c/e stay full and wide, while diagonals (v/w/x/y) read sharp and dynamic, reinforcing motion.
