A heavy, oblique sans with broad proportions and rounded construction. Strokes stay largely uniform, producing solid, dark letterforms with smooth curves and minimal modulation. The shapes feel compact and sturdy, with short, thick terminals and generous inner curves; counters remain open enough to keep forms like O, e, and a readable at display sizes. The overall rhythm is energetic, with a consistent forward slant and slightly condensed apertures that emphasize mass and momentum.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as headlines, posters, campaign graphics, and prominent UI or app banners. The strong oblique stance and dense color make it effective for sports and lifestyle branding, product packaging, and attention-grabbing signage, especially where a modern, energetic tone is desired.
The tone is bold and upbeat, projecting speed and impact without feeling aggressive. Its rounded forms keep the voice approachable and modern, while the strong slant adds urgency and motion. The result feels athletic and headline-driven, suited to messaging that needs to land quickly and confidently.
Designed to deliver maximum visual impact with a fast, forward-leaning silhouette. The emphasis appears to be on bold presence and clean, rounded simplicity, balancing forceful weight with friendly, contemporary shapes for modern display typography.
Figures are weighty and stable, matching the letters’ dark color and forward-leaning stance. Uppercase forms read as clean and geometric, while lowercase adds softness through rounded bowls and straightforward joins, keeping the family feeling cohesive across mixed-case settings.
