A heavy, wide display face with compact counters and a strongly sculpted stroke structure. Curves are squared-off and slightly flattened, with crisp terminals and pronounced bracket-like joins that create dark, stable letterforms. The lowercase shows a double-storey “a” and a single-storey “g,” with tight apertures and chunky bowls that keep the texture dense. Numerals are equally weighty and open enough to remain distinguishable at size, with broad shapes and firm horizontal stress.
Best suited to short-form typography where mass and presence are desirable: headlines, event posters, sports-oriented branding, bold packaging, and large-format signage. It can work in subheads or pull quotes when set with comfortable tracking and ample leading.
The overall tone is loud and confident, with a punchy, no-nonsense presence that reads as energetic and slightly retro. Its dense color and sharp shaping suggest impact and urgency, making it feel suited to attention-grabbing messaging rather than subtlety.
This font appears designed to deliver maximum impact with a robust, wide silhouette and controlled contrast, balancing legibility with a strongly graphic, display-first personality.
Spacing appears generous for such a dark design, helping the forms stay legible despite tight internal space. Many letters emphasize squared interior corners and reinforced joins, which adds an engineered, poster-like rhythm across words.
