A heavy, right-slanted display sans with rounded-rectangle construction and tightly carved counters. Strokes are thick with crisp, chiseled-looking interior cut-ins that create a stepped, notched texture across bowls and joins. The letterforms lean forward with a compact, punchy rhythm, and rounded corners soften the silhouette while keeping the overall geometry blocky and wide-set. Numerals match the same massy, streamlined feel, with bold, simplified shapes and occasional internal notches that echo the letters’ cutaway motif.
Best used at larger sizes where the internal cut-ins and rounded geometry can be appreciated—headlines, posters, event graphics, sports branding, packaging, and logo wordmarks. It can also work for short, emphatic statements in ads or social graphics, but the dense counters make it less suitable for long-form reading.
The overall tone is energetic and forceful, with a sporty, attention-grabbing presence. The combination of forward slant, chunky weight, and stylized cut-ins gives it a retro display flavor that feels playful but uncompromising—well suited to loud headlines and branding moments that need impact.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact with a forward-driving stance and a distinctive cutaway texture, combining rounded, modern geometry with a throwback display attitude. It aims to be immediately recognizable in branding and titling through its chunky proportions and signature notched detailing.
Curved letters like C, S, and G show distinctive inward “bites” that create recognizable texture at a glance, and the sample text demonstrates strong word-shape clarity despite tight internal spaces. The rounded terminals and corners keep the style friendly, while the angular cutaways add grit and motion.
