A heavy, right-slanted sans with rounded bowls and sharply cut terminals. Strokes show noticeable contrast for a sans, with thick primary stems and slimmer interior joins, plus occasional ink-trap-like notches where strokes meet (visible in letters like a, e, s, and g). Counters are relatively tight and the overall silhouette feels compact and aerodynamic, while wide caps and broad round letters keep the texture bold and blocky. Diagonals and joins (K, V, W, X, Y) are crisp, and numerals follow the same forward-leaning, cut-terminal construction.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, logos/wordmarks, sports and event graphics, and bold packaging. It can work for punchy subheads or callouts, especially where a sense of speed and emphasis is desired.
The font reads fast and assertive, with a sporty, poster-driven attitude. Its forward slant and dense black shapes create a sense of motion and impact, making the tone feel energetic and attention-seeking rather than quiet or bookish.
The letterforms appear designed to deliver maximum visual punch with a streamlined, forward-leaning rhythm. The combination of angled terminals, tight counters, and emphasized joins suggests an intention to stay legible at display sizes while projecting motion and modernity.
The design relies on a consistent system of angled cuts and scooped joints, producing distinctive inner shapes at small apertures. Uppercase forms are sturdy and headline-oriented, while lowercase maintains a compact rhythm and a distinctly italicized flow, helping words look cohesive and dynamic.
