A compact, oblique sans with heavy, even strokes and softly squared curves. Letterforms are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, producing broad verticals, flattened bowls, and tight interior counters. The overall rhythm is condensed and vertical, with sturdy joints and minimal modulation; terminals are generally blunt with subtle rounding that keeps the texture smooth at display sizes. Numerals and capitals share the same dense, poster-like footprint, giving lines a dark, continuous color.
Best suited to big, attention-grabbing applications such as headlines, posters, sports and event branding, packaging callouts, and bold signage. It can also work for short subheads or labels where a compact, forceful voice is needed and space is limited.
The font reads as assertive and energetic, with a compressed slant that suggests motion and urgency. Its rounded-block construction keeps the tone approachable rather than harsh, making it feel modern, sporty, and headline-driven.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a condensed footprint while maintaining a friendly, contemporary feel through rounded-rectangle construction. Its consistent stroke weight and oblique stance prioritize momentum and visibility in display typography.
The strong weight and tight counters create a high-ink, high-impact texture that favors short bursts of text over long reading. The oblique angle and condensed spacing amplify emphasis, especially in all-caps settings.
