A heavy, slanted sans with broad proportions and rounded, soft-cornered forms. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, producing dense counters and strong silhouettes. Curves are built from smooth ellipses, while joins and terminals tend to be blunted or subtly sheared, giving the letterforms a streamlined, forward-leaning profile. The lowercase shows single-storey constructions (notably a and g) and simplified shapes, and the figures follow the same robust, rounded geometry for a uniform, high-impact texture.
Best suited to high-visibility applications such as headlines, posters, campaign graphics, sports branding, and packaging where a bold, forward-moving voice is needed. It can also work for short subheads or callouts in editorial or web layouts, especially when paired with a lighter companion for body text.
The overall tone is bold and upbeat, with a fast, sporty cadence created by the slant and wide set. Rounded geometry keeps it approachable and contemporary, while the chunky weight and compact counters add a confident, poster-like punch that nods to retro athletic and headline styles.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a smooth, rounded, contemporary sans structure, combining a strong, emphatic weight with a dynamic slanted posture for motion and immediacy.
In text, the strong black color and tight internal spaces emphasize word shapes more than fine detail, making it most comfortable at display sizes. The forms maintain a consistent rhythm across caps, lowercase, and numerals, and the slanted stance stays steady without becoming overly calligraphic.
