A heavy, oblique sans with broad proportions and rounded, softly squared curves. Strokes are thick and clean with subtle contrast, and terminals are generally blunt, giving the forms a solid, blocky feel. Counters stay fairly open for the weight, with circular shapes (O, 0) reading as robust ovals and lowercase bowls leaning toward geometric construction. The overall rhythm is compact and forward-leaning, with a consistent slant and tight, purposeful letterfit in text.
Works best for short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, logo wordmarks, packaging callouts, and sports or automotive-style branding. In longer text it will read forcefully and consume space, making it more suitable for emphasis, pull quotes, or compact UI labels where strong hierarchy is needed.
The tone is energetic and confident, with a forward motion that feels sporty and headline-driven. Its heavy build and oblique stance project urgency and impact, suited to bold statements rather than quiet reading.
Designed to deliver a bold, modern voice with clear forward motion, prioritizing impact and immediacy. The rounded geometric construction and sturdy stroke weight suggest an intention for display-led typography that remains clean and legible at large sizes.
Figures are strong and simplified, matching the letterforms’ weight and stance; the “1” is notably angular, while rounded digits like “8” and “0” keep a dense, sturdy silhouette. Lowercase forms maintain a consistent italic flow, with single-storey shapes where expected and prominent, rounded joins that keep the texture smooth at display sizes.
