A heavy, oblique sans with broad proportions and smooth, rounded geometry. Strokes are uniform with minimal modulation, producing a solid, even color in text. Curves are circular and open, while joins and terminals are clean and decisively cut, giving letters a crisp, engineered finish. The lowercase is compact and sturdy with short extenders and tight interior spaces; figures are similarly weighty and stable, with simple, blocky forms and rounded bowls.
Best suited to headlines, logos, and short bursts of text where impact and motion are desirable. The dense weight and broad stance make it effective for posters, sports or tech branding, packaging callouts, and large-format signage where strong visibility is needed.
The overall tone is energetic and forward-leaning, with a strong, contemporary presence. Its thick strokes and slanted stance read as active and assertive, suggesting speed, momentum, and confidence rather than delicacy or formality.
This design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-impact sans with a built-in sense of speed. The combination of heavy strokes, wide proportions, and controlled geometric curves prioritizes bold presence and quick recognition in display-oriented settings.
The oblique angle is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, and the wide set contributes to a punchy rhythm at display sizes. Round letters (like O/C/e) stay smooth and balanced, while diagonals (like K/V/W/X/Y) feel taut and dynamic, reinforcing the font’s brisk, athletic character.
