A heavy, forward-slanted sans with compact proportions and rounded-rectangle construction throughout. Strokes are broadly uniform and dense, with softened corners and squarish counters that keep curves from feeling purely geometric. The fit is tight and the sidebearings read economical, producing a brisk rhythm in text. Many joins and terminals are cut on angles, adding a dynamic, engineered feel while keeping the overall silhouette clean and solid.
This face is well suited to headlines, posters, and short, high-impact messaging where density and motion help grab attention. It also fits sports and fitness branding, energetic campaign graphics, and bold packaging callouts. For longer reading, it will perform best in brief bursts—subheads, labels, and display lines—where its tight spacing and strong presence can be managed comfortably.
The tone is energetic and assertive, with a sporty, motion-forward attitude driven by the consistent slant and compressed stance. Its blocky massing and rounded geometry give it a contemporary, impact-first voice that feels built for speed and emphasis rather than delicacy.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch in a compact footprint, combining a strong oblique stance with rounded-rectangle forms for a modern, high-energy look. Its simplified, uniform stroke treatment suggests a focus on consistent color and fast recognition in display settings.
Round letters like O/C/G and numerals such as 0/8 show squarish interior spaces, reinforcing the superelliptical, rounded-rectangle theme. The lowercase has a compact, sturdy look with single-storey forms (e.g., a and g) and a sturdy, minimal-detail construction that favors clarity at larger sizes.
