A heavy, forward-leaning sans with sturdy strokes and minimal modulation. Forms are broadly proportioned with compact counters and slightly tightened apertures, giving letters a dense, high-impact texture in text. Curves are clean and somewhat squared-off by flat or angled terminals, while joins stay smooth and mechanical rather than calligraphic. The lowercase shows a double-storey “a” and “g,” and the figures are robust and slanted to match, with simple, utilitarian construction.
Well suited to headlines, posters, and branded statements where a strong, kinetic voice is needed. It can work effectively for sports and fitness identities, bold packaging callouts, and short signage text, especially when set with generous tracking or ample line spacing.
The overall tone is energetic and forceful, with a fast, directional feel from the oblique slant and weighty presence. It reads confident and performance-oriented, suited to messaging that wants to feel active, tough, and contemporary.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-impact sans optimized for emphasis and momentum. Its combination of broad proportions, heavy stroke weight, and oblique stance suggests a focus on attention-grabbing display typography with a utilitarian, contemporary finish.
Diagonal strokes and angled cuts (notably in letters like K, V, W, X, and Z) reinforce a sharp rhythm, while rounded letters keep a consistent, engineered smoothness. The bold weight and relatively compact inner spaces suggest best results at medium to large sizes where the shapes can breathe.
