A heavy, right-leaning oblique sans with broad proportions and rounded, geometric countershapes. Strokes are thick and smoothly modeled, with subtly tightened joints and small notch-like cut-ins at some interior corners that help keep counters open at this weight. Curves are full and even, terminals read as cleanly cut rather than tapered, and overall spacing feels sturdy and headline-oriented, producing a dense, high-impact texture in text.
Best suited to display settings where impact and momentum matter—headlines, posters, sports-related branding, product packaging, and bold advertising lines. It can work for short blurbs or callouts, but the dense color and slant make it less ideal for extended small-size reading.
The combination of strong weight and forward slant gives it a fast, assertive tone that feels athletic and promotional. Its rounded geometry keeps the voice friendly and contemporary, balancing aggression with approachability.
Designed to deliver maximum presence with a dynamic, forward-leaning stance while preserving clarity through open counters and controlled joins. The overall system appears aimed at modern, high-energy communication where instant readability and attitude are both priorities.
Figures and capitals are built to hold their shape under heavy ink, with counters that remain clearly legible and a consistent oblique angle across the set. The sample text shows a strong rhythmic sweep, making it especially effective when set large with generous line spacing.
