A heavy, slanted sans with broad, rounded forms and compact counters that create strong, dark color on the page. Curves are smooth and geometric-leaning, while joins and terminals stay clean and mostly straight-cut, giving the shapes a crisp, engineered finish. The overall proportions feel sturdy and slightly condensed in the internal spacing, with an elevated x-height and short extenders that keep lowercase text looking dense and emphatic. Figures and capitals share the same robust weight and steady rhythm, producing an even, poster-ready texture.
Best suited to headlines, short statements, and display settings where strong emphasis is needed. It works well for sports and active branding, promotional graphics, packaging callouts, and bold UI moments such as hero banners or buttons, especially when generous tracking and line spacing are available.
The tone is assertive and upbeat, with a forward-leaning stance that reads as active and energetic. Its chunky silhouettes and friendly rounding avoid harshness, making it feel approachable while still commanding attention.
Likely designed to deliver maximum impact in a compact, slanted sans style—combining geometric smoothness with heavy weight for attention-grabbing, modern display typography.
At text sizes the tight apertures and small counters make the face read as a strong mass rather than a delicate line, favoring impact over airy legibility. The consistent slant and uniform stroke treatment help maintain a stable rhythm across mixed-case settings and numerals.
