A heavy, right-slanted sans with broad proportions and smooth, rounded contours. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, producing a dense, even color. Curves are generous and open (notably in C, G, S, and O), while joins and terminals are clean and largely squared-off, keeping the shapes crisp despite the softness of the overall drawing. The lowercase is compact and sturdy with simple, single-storey forms where applicable, and the numerals match the same robust, forward-leaning construction.
Best suited for headlines, promotional copy, and brand moments where impact and speed are desirable. It works well on posters, packaging, and sports or tech-adjacent identities, and it can carry short-to-medium text when set with comfortable spacing due to its strong weight and broad letterforms.
The overall tone is energetic and assertive, with a forward-lean that suggests motion and urgency. Its weight and width give it a confident, attention-grabbing presence, reading as contemporary and performance-oriented rather than formal or delicate.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, contemporary voice with a sense of movement. By combining rounded, low-modulation construction with a strong slant and wide proportions, it aims for high visibility and an energetic, modern character.
The italic angle is pronounced enough to create momentum without collapsing counters, helping short words and headlines feel fast and emphatic. Round characters remain stable and well-balanced, and diagonals (V, W, X, Y) are strongly cut, reinforcing a sharp, athletic rhythm.
