A heavy, oblique sans with compact proportions and strongly rounded, superellipse-like bowls. Strokes are broad and even, with minimal modulation and tightly controlled counters that stay open enough for display use. Terminals are clean and mostly squared-off but softened by rounding, giving letters a sturdy, molded feel. The overall rhythm is dense and forward-leaning, with a tall, compressed silhouette that emphasizes verticality and momentum.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, sports and team identities, promotional posters, event graphics, packaging callouts, and attention-grabbing signage. It can work for brief subheads or labels, but the dense, heavy construction favors display sizes over long-form text.
The tone is energetic and forceful, combining speed-oriented slant with a tough, no-nonsense mass. Its rounded geometry keeps it friendly enough to avoid harshness, while the dense spacing and weight project confidence and immediacy. The result feels contemporary and action-driven, with clear ties to athletic and promotional typography.
Likely designed to deliver maximum impact in a compact footprint, pairing a fast oblique stance with rounded-rectilinear geometry for a modern, engineered look. The aim appears to be bold visibility and a strong brandable voice that remains smooth and controlled rather than sharp or edgy.
Round letters (like O, C, G) read as rounded rectangles rather than true circles, reinforcing a geometric, engineered aesthetic. The numerals match the bold, compact construction and maintain consistent slant and weight, supporting cohesive typographic color in headings.
