A heavy, slanted sans with broad proportions and rounded geometry. Strokes are thick and fairly even, with smooth, softened joins and generous curves in bowls and rounds. Apertures and counters are relatively tight at this weight, giving the letters a dense, punchy texture, while the overall set maintains consistent rhythm and sturdy alignment. Numerals match the same bold, forward-leaning construction and read as solid, blocky forms with rounded interiors.
Best suited to large-scale settings where impact is the priority: headlines, posters, brand marks, and campaign graphics. It also fits energetic categories such as sports and fitness, and works well on packaging or signage where quick recognition matters more than extended reading.
The overall tone is fast, forceful, and contemporary, with a forward-leaning stance that suggests motion and urgency. Its dense color and wide stance feel confident and promotional, leaning toward athletic and high-energy branding rather than quiet editorial text.
Designed to deliver maximum emphasis with a sense of speed and contemporary polish. The combination of broad, rounded forms and a pronounced slant appears intended to read as dynamic and confident while staying clean and strictly sans in detail.
The oblique angle is strong enough to be a defining feature, and the round-based construction keeps the look friendly despite the mass. In longer lines, the heavy weight produces a dark typographic color, so spacing and line length will have a big impact on readability.
