A heavy, slanted sans with broad proportions and compact counters. Forms lean forward with a consistent italic angle and a strong, rounded geometric construction—bowls and curves read as cut from circles and ellipses. Terminals are mostly blunt with occasional angled cuts, giving the strokes a carved, energetic edge. Letterforms favor sturdy silhouettes over internal openness, and the overall rhythm is dense and impactful at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and branding where bold, fast-moving typography is needed. It works well for sports and automotive themes, energetic retail or packaging, and logo/wordmark applications that benefit from a compact, high-impact texture.
The tone is energetic and attention-grabbing, with a sporty, retro-influenced feel. Its forward lean and chunky shapes convey speed and confidence, while the rounded geometry keeps it approachable and slightly playful.
The design appears intended as a display sans that prioritizes impact and motion: a forward-leaning, rounded construction paired with assertive cuts to keep the heavy forms lively and distinctive.
Round characters like O/Q and the bowls of B/P have notably small apertures, boosting weight and presence but reducing interior clarity at smaller sizes. Diagonals and notches in letters such as K, S, and Z add motion and help differentiate shapes within the heavy texture.
