A heavy, condensed oblique sans with compact, squared-round (superelliptical) counters and corners. Strokes are broad and mostly monolinear in feel, with subtle contrast coming from angled joins and tight apertures. The forms look engineered and blocky, with short horizontals, sturdy verticals, and slightly tapered diagonals that keep the texture dense while maintaining clear silhouettes. Lowercase letters sit on a tall x-height and keep counters relatively open for the width, while numerals follow the same compressed, muscular proportions.
Best suited to large-size applications where impact matters: bold headlines, sports and fitness branding, promotional posters, and attention-grabbing packaging. It can also work for short UI/marketing banners or labels where space is limited and a condensed, high-energy voice is desired.
The overall tone is energetic and forceful, with a forward-leaning stance that suggests speed and competition. Its chunky, squared-round geometry reads contemporary and utilitarian, conveying confidence and urgency without feeling decorative.
The design appears intended to maximize punch in tight horizontal space, using condensed proportions, a strong oblique slant, and superelliptical rounding to stay modern and cohesive. It prioritizes immediate recognition and momentum over long-form comfort.
Rhythm is tight and uniform, producing a solid “wall of type” effect in headlines. Curves tend to resolve into rounded-rectangle shapes rather than true circles, and joins are crisp, reinforcing a technical, sports-display character.
