A heavy, oblique sans with rounded-rectangle construction and broadly softened corners throughout. Strokes are thick and uniform with minimal contrast, producing dense, dark letterforms and a steady rhythm. Counters are compact and mostly squarish/oval, and apertures tend to be tight, emphasizing solidity over airiness. The slant is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, with short, sturdy terminals and a generally compact footprint that reads strongly at display sizes.
Best suited to high-impact applications such as sports identities, event posters, promotional headlines, and bold UI callouts. The dense weight and compact counters make it particularly effective where strong presence is needed—on signage, packaging, and brand marks—especially when set at medium-to-large sizes.
The overall tone is energetic and assertive, blending athletic urgency with a clean, contemporary feel. Rounded corners keep the voice friendly and approachable, while the weight and oblique angle add motion and impact. It suggests speed, strength, and forward momentum without becoming aggressive or sharp.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum punch with a streamlined, contemporary geometry: rounded, superelliptical forms for friendliness and cohesion, paired with a consistent oblique stance for speed and emphasis. It prioritizes bold, logo-like clarity and a compact, powerful texture in display settings.
Capitals are wide-shouldered and stable, while lowercase forms keep a simplified, sturdy silhouette; the single-storey shapes and tight joins reinforce a utilitarian, logo-ready look. Numerals follow the same rounded, block-like logic, with clear differentiation and a consistent slant that helps them sit naturally in headlines and badges.
