A slanted, heavy sans with clean, geometric construction and rounded bowls. Strokes stay largely uniform, with crisp terminals and smooth curve-to-stem joins that keep the texture even in dense settings. Proportions feel compact with sturdy verticals and slightly squared counters in places, giving the forms a stable, engineered look. The overall rhythm is tight and consistent, producing strong color and clear word shapes in display sizes.
Best suited for headlines and short text where impact and momentum matter—posters, sports and fitness branding, event graphics, packaging, and bold wayfinding. It can work for brief editorial callouts or UI labels when used sparingly, especially where a strong, action-oriented voice is desired.
The tone is fast and purposeful, with an athletic, forward-leaning attitude. Its firm geometry and dense weight read as confident and modern, lending a performance-oriented feel that suits energetic branding and punchy messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver high-impact, forward-leaning typography with a clean sans foundation. Its consistent stroke weight and compact, geometric forms prioritize clarity and forceful presence in display applications.
Numerals are robust and highly present on the line, matching the uppercase weight and slant for a cohesive typographic palette. Round characters maintain a controlled, almost mechanical curvature, which helps the font stay crisp and legible when set large and tightly spaced.
