A heavy, oblique sans with compact proportions and rounded-rectangle construction throughout. Curves lean toward superelliptical bowls (notably in C, G, O, Q, and 0), while corners are softened rather than sharp, giving the face a dense, machined feel. Strokes are broadly uniform, with occasional small notches/ink-trap-like cuts at joins and terminals that help open counters and clarify interior spaces at large sizes. Letterforms are wide-shouldered and tightly set in feel, with sturdy verticals, simplified apertures, and a consistent forward slant that keeps the rhythm fast and cohesive.
Best suited to headlines and short-form display where its weight and slant can deliver immediate impact—sports branding, event posters, bold packaging callouts, and apparel or sticker-style graphics. It can work for punchy subheads, but long text blocks may feel dense due to its compact, forceful rhythm.
The overall tone is loud, driven, and contemporary, with a confident “go-fast” slant that reads as athletic and promotional. Its rounded geometry prevents it from feeling harsh, but the mass and tight shaping still project urgency and impact.
The design appears intended as a high-impact display sans that combines rounded-rectangle geometry with an aggressive oblique stance for fast, modern branding. The subtle cut-ins at joins suggest an aim to preserve clarity and counter space while keeping the overall silhouette dense and powerful.
Numerals are squat and powerful with clear, rounded counters (8 and 9 particularly), while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) are chunky and stable. The lowercase shows sturdy, single-story-style simplicity in several forms and maintains strong legibility through large counters and deliberate openings despite the heavy weight.
