A heavy, right-slanted sans with compact proportions and a forward-leaning stance. The letterforms are built from broad strokes with tight internal counters and a distinctly carved, wedge-like modulation at joins and terminals, creating sharp notches and angular cut-ins. Curves are sturdy and slightly squared-off, while diagonals and verticals keep a consistent, forceful rhythm; overall spacing reads tight and engineered for impact rather than airiness.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, sports branding, packaging callouts, and logo wordmarks where the angled stance and carved details can read clearly. It performs strongest at medium-to-large sizes, where the tight counters and notched terminals remain distinct.
The overall tone is fast, assertive, and attention-grabbing, with a strong sense of motion from the pronounced slant and aggressive cuts. It evokes a sporty, poster-forward energy that feels bold and somewhat retro, like display lettering designed to shout rather than whisper.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual force in an oblique, energetic voice while staying within a sans framework. The sculpted cuts and compact, weight-forward construction suggest a focus on display use and brandable texture rather than neutral text setting.
Uppercase forms feel especially chunky and sculpted, with idiosyncratic interior shaping that adds texture at large sizes. Numerals are equally weighty and legible, matching the same slanted, cut-terminal logic for a cohesive headline set.
