A heavy, slanted sans with broad, superellipse-like curves and squared-off geometry softened by rounded corners. The letterforms are compact and tightly enclosed, with small internal counters and sturdy, uniform strokes that read as chunky and solid at display sizes. Terminals often feel sheared or angled, reinforcing the forward-leaning motion, while round letters like O/C/G maintain a squarish, rounded-rectangle silhouette. The overall rhythm is dense and energetic, with a consistent, engineered look across caps, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited for display typography where weight and motion are assets: sports identities, team and event graphics, punchy headlines, promotional posters, and bold packaging callouts. It can also work for short UI labels or badges when used large enough to keep the tight counters clear.
The tone is loud and high-energy, with a sporty, action-forward feel suited to attention-grabbing messaging. Its slant and blocky mass suggest speed and strength, giving it a confident, competitive voice that can read as both modern and slightly retro in spirit.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a sense of speed, using a consistent slant, dense silhouettes, and rounded-rectangular curves to create a strong, engineered presence for branding and promotional display text.
Uppercase forms are especially compact and impactful, while the lowercase retains the same chunky construction and tight apertures for a unified system. Numerals match the alphabet’s squarish-round design language, keeping the texture consistent in mixed alphanumeric settings. Because counters are tight and joins are heavy, the design is most comfortable at larger sizes or with generous spacing.
