A heavy, slanted sans with compact internal counters and broad, rounded curves. Strokes appear uniform and dense, with softened corners and a slightly condensed, blocky construction that keeps shapes tightly closed at small apertures. The italic angle is pronounced and consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals, creating a forward-leaning rhythm. Letterforms favor sturdy geometry—round bowls, thick terminals, and simplified joins—prioritizing solidity and impact over fine detail.
Best suited for short, prominent copy such as headlines, posters, logos, and brand marks where a bold, forward-leaning presence is desirable. It can also work for impactful packaging and sports or fitness-oriented graphics, especially when set at larger sizes where the tight counters and dense color remain clear.
The overall tone is energetic and forceful, with a clear sense of motion from the strong slant and weight. It reads as contemporary and utilitarian, suggesting speed, strength, and confidence rather than elegance or delicacy.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch with a cohesive italic motion, using simplified, rounded shapes and heavy mass to stay readable while projecting speed and strength.
Uppercase forms are broad and stable with generous roundness in C, O, and G, while diagonals (A, V, W, X, Y) feel especially muscular due to the thick stroke and tight counters. Lowercase maintains a sturdy, compact texture, with a single-storey a and bold, rounded bowls that hold together well in large display settings. Numerals follow the same chunky, rounded logic, with the 0 and 8 notably full and closed.
