A heavy, slanted sans with broad proportions and rounded, geometric construction. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal contrast, and terminals are clean and unadorned, giving letters a smooth, cut-from-solid feel. Counters are compact and apertures tend to be fairly closed, which increases color density in text. The lowercase is large and prominent, with simple, single-storey forms (notably a and g), round dots on i/j, and sturdy bowls throughout. Numerals match the same wide, weighty rhythm, reading as bold, stable shapes with rounded interiors.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and branding where a loud, fast, contemporary voice is needed. It works well for sports and fitness identities, product packaging, and promotional graphics, especially at medium-to-large sizes where the rounded shapes and dense color read crisply.
The overall tone is energetic and forceful, with a forward-leaning stance that suggests motion and confidence. Its rounded geometry keeps the mood friendly and contemporary rather than harsh, balancing punch with approachability.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a streamlined, geometric sans structure and a forward slant for motion. It prioritizes bold presence and a unified, graphic rhythm over open, airy text color, making it a statement face for display-driven layouts.
In the sample text, the strong slant and dense spacing create a cohesive, dark typographic texture that holds attention quickly. The wide set and compact counters favor short bursts of text, where the uniform weight and smooth curves read as intentional and graphic.
