A slanted sans with heavy strokes and low contrast, built from simple, sturdy geometry. Curves are broad and smooth, while terminals are mostly blunt and squared-off, giving the forms a compact, high-impact silhouette. Counters are relatively tight (notably in a, e, and 8), and the overall rhythm is steady with clear, blocky letterfit that favors punch over delicacy.
Best suited to headlines, display copy, and branding where a strong slanted emphasis is desired. It also works well for impactful signage and sports-leaning graphics, and can hold up in short bursts of text where compact counters and a dark color are acceptable.
The tone is direct and energetic, with a forward-leaning posture that reads as active and assertive. Its plain, no-frills construction feels contemporary and utilitarian, projecting clarity and strength rather than warmth or ornament.
Likely designed to deliver a forceful, contemporary sans voice with built-in emphasis from the slant. The emphasis appears to be on strong silhouettes, easy scanning, and dependable legibility in bold, attention-grabbing settings.
Uppercase shapes stay fairly uniform and stable, while the lowercase keeps a single-storey a and g, reinforcing an uncomplicated, workhorse feel. Numerals are robust and highly legible, with round forms that remain dense and dark at text sizes.
