A heavy, slanted sans with broad proportions and compact internal counters. Stroke endings are clean and mostly squared-off, while bowls and rounds stay smooth and geometric, creating a crisp, poster-ready silhouette. The letterforms lean consistently, with sturdy verticals and a forward-driving rhythm; apertures are relatively tight and joins are robust, keeping the texture dense and high-impact at display sizes. Numerals follow the same solid, simplified construction with strong curves and minimal detail.
Best suited to large, attention-grabbing applications such as headlines, posters, sports and event branding, and bold packaging. It can work for short bursts of text (taglines, labels, navigation) where impact is prioritized, but the dense counters and strong slant suggest avoiding long reading passages at small sizes.
The overall tone is energetic and forceful, with a fast, forward-leaning feel that suggests motion and urgency. Its dense color and wide stance read as confident and attention-seeking, leaning toward contemporary, sporty communication rather than quiet neutrality.
The design appears intended as a high-impact italic sans for display typography, combining geometric roundness with blocky terminals to maximize presence and speed. Its consistent forward slant and compact counters reinforce an emphasis on momentum and bold, contemporary messaging.
Uppercase shapes are straightforward and geometric, and the lowercase maintains a similarly sturdy build, giving mixed-case text a consistent, muscular texture. Spacing appears on the tight side in the samples, which amplifies the dark, compact color and headline presence.
