A heavy, expanded display face with broad, compact counters and a strongly graphic silhouette. Strokes show noticeable thickness modulation with tapered joins and occasional sharp wedges, creating a cut-in, almost ink-trap-like character at some intersections. Curves are generously rounded in bowls and terminals, while diagonals and joins introduce crisp angles that keep the rhythm lively. Lowercase forms are large and sturdy with a tall x-height, and the numerals share the same wide stance and bold, simplified interior shapes.
Best suited to headlines and short bursts of copy where its wide, heavy shapes can work as a graphic element. It fits posters, event titles, packaging, and bold brand marks, and can also support sports or entertainment branding where impact and presence are the priority.
The overall tone is loud and confident, with a retro, poster-like energy. Its rounded massing and punchy contrast give it a playful swagger while still reading as forceful and attention-grabbing.
Designed to maximize visual weight and width for strong shelf and screen presence, while using contrast and tapered joins to avoid a flat, purely geometric block. The large lowercase and simplified counters suggest an emphasis on legibility at display sizes and on creating a distinctive, memorable word shape.
Spacing appears built for headline sizes: sidebearings look tight and the wide proportions create a dense, blocky texture in paragraphs of sample text. Distinctive wedge-like joins (notably in letters with diagonals) and the smooth, inflated bowls make the design feel both mechanical and cartoonish depending on setting.
