A heavy, oblique sans with smooth, geometric construction and broadly rounded bowls. Strokes stay consistent with little visible modulation, creating a dense, stable color on the page. Terminals are clean and largely squared-off, while curves remain generous, giving counters a clear, open feel. The italic slant is pronounced and uniform, producing forward motion without becoming narrow or condensed.
Best suited to headlines and short, high-impact text where the slant and weight can carry emphasis. It works well for branding, packaging, and advertising that needs an energetic, modern voice, and it’s particularly fitting for sports-leaning or action-oriented graphics. For longer passages, the strong oblique rhythm may be most comfortable at larger sizes with generous spacing.
The overall tone is energetic and contemporary, with a confident, no-nonsense presence. Its rounded geometry keeps it approachable, while the strong weight and slant add momentum that feels active and assertive.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, geometric sans voice with added motion from a strong italic angle. It aims for punchy visibility and a cohesive, rounded structure that stays legible while projecting speed and confidence.
Round letters like O and Q read very circular, with the Q marked by a compact, angled tail. Numerals are robust and straightforward, matching the same geometric logic and maintaining strong readability at display sizes.
