A heavy, slanted sans with rounded-rectangle construction and tightly controlled curves. Strokes are broadly uniform with squared terminals softened by generous corner radii, producing a chunky, machined silhouette. Counters are compact and often rectangular, with small apertures in letters like e, a, and s that boost density. The rhythm is slightly uneven in a purposeful way—some letters feel wider and more open (M, W) while others are compact—creating a dynamic, poster-ready texture. Several joins and inner corners show subtle notch-like cut-ins that read as ink-trap-inspired shaping rather than high contrast detailing.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, sports and esports identities, product packaging, and bold logo wordmarks. It also works for punchy subheads or callouts where the condensed counters and heavy mass can be given enough size and spacing to breathe.
The overall tone is fast and forceful, with a sporty, competitive feel reminiscent of athletic branding and action-oriented headlines. Its rounded block geometry keeps it friendly enough for pop-culture uses, while the strong slant and tight counters add urgency and impact.
The design appears aimed at delivering maximum impact with a streamlined, rounded-block aesthetic—combining a forward-leaning stance with compact interior spaces to create a dense, energetic typographic voice for display use.
Uppercase forms are sturdy and compact, while lowercase keeps the same industrial softness, helping mixed-case settings remain bold and cohesive. Numerals are thick and simplified with wide presence, and the dot on i/j is a clean, geometric circle that reinforces the constructed look.
