A heavy, oblique sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. Strokes are monolinear and dense, with broad, slightly squared curves in rounds like O/C and a compact, forward-leaning rhythm. Terminals tend to be clean and minimally cut, producing a sturdy, engineered feel, while counters are moderately open for the weight. The overall texture is dark and even, with consistent proportions across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited for large-scale typography such as headlines, posters, packaging, and brand marks where a dense, energetic voice is desirable. It can also work for short UI labels or signage when a bold, high-impact presence is needed, though the heavy texture and oblique stance are more commanding than neutral for long reading.
The forward slant and chunky, rounded geometry create a sense of motion and intensity, reading as energetic and performance-oriented rather than refined or delicate. Its tone feels contemporary and utilitarian, suited to messaging that needs to land quickly and confidently.
The design appears intended to combine a strong, high-impact weight with a streamlined, rounded industrial geometry, delivering a fast, athletic impression while keeping letterforms simple and consistent. The oblique angle reinforces momentum, making it feel built for attention-grabbing display use.
Capitals present a strong, blocky silhouette with broad bowls (B, P, R) and wide, rounded rounds; diagonals (K, V, W, X, Y) are thick and stable. Lowercase maintains the same robust build, with a single-storey a and g and a simple, compact r, emphasizing speed and clarity over calligraphic detail. Numerals are similarly solid and slightly squared in their curves, keeping a consistent, punchy color in lines of text.
