A heavy, oblique sans with broad, rounded forms and tightly controlled curves. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, producing solid silhouettes and strong color on the page. The slant is pronounced and uniform, giving straight-sided letters a forward-leaning stance while keeping counters relatively open for the weight. Terminals are generally blunt and softened, and joins are smooth rather than angular, creating a sturdy, compressed-in-motion rhythm across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings where impact and immediacy matter, such as headlines, posters, sports or fitness branding, packaging callouts, and bold signage. It can also work for large-scale editorial emphasis and promotional graphics where a forceful, forward-leaning voice is desired.
The overall tone is energetic and assertive, with a forward-driving, action-oriented feel. Its bold, leaning shapes read as sporty and attention-grabbing, leaning into a slightly retro display sensibility while still feeling clean and modern.
Designed to deliver maximum visual punch with a streamlined, no-nonsense construction and a consistent oblique stance. The letterforms emphasize bold presence, fast readability at larger sizes, and a dynamic rhythm appropriate for energetic branding and display typography.
Capitals appear built from simple geometric masses with broad internal spaces (notably in O, P, Q), and the numerals share the same rounded, weighty construction for a cohesive set. In longer text, the strong slant and dense strokes create a powerful headline texture that prioritizes impact over delicacy.
