A condensed oblique sans with a heavy, even stroke and rounded-rectangular (superellipse-like) bowls. Terminals are mostly blunt and slightly chamfered, with occasional wedge-like cuts that add crispness at joins. Curves are tightly controlled and squarish, producing compact counters and a strong, forward-leaning rhythm. Spacing is fairly tight and the numerals and caps read as sturdy, blocky forms with consistent weight and minimal modulation.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings where impact and momentum are desirable: headlines, posters, sports and fitness branding, event graphics, packaging, and prominent UI or app headers. It can work for brief callouts and labels, but the heavy, condensed build is most effective when given room and used at larger sizes.
The overall tone is fast, assertive, and energetic, with a clear sports and display feel. Its slanted stance and compact shapes give it a sense of motion, while the rounded geometry keeps it friendly rather than aggressive. The result feels modern with a retro-leaning headline attitude.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum punch in a compact footprint, combining a forward-leaning stance with rounded, squared-off geometry for a strong, contemporary display voice. The crisp cuts and controlled counters suggest an aim for clear silhouette recognition under dense, bold setting.
Several glyphs show small notches or pinch points at joins (notably in forms like B, R, S, and some lowercase), which helps prevent dark spots in the dense, heavy construction. Uppercase forms are tall and commanding, while the lowercase maintains strong presence and legibility through large internal openings where possible. The figures are similarly robust and stylistically consistent, suited to emphatic numeric emphasis.
