A heavy, oblique sans with broad proportions and rounded, softened corners. Strokes stay visually even, producing solid, blocky letterforms with compact counters and a slightly compressed interior space. Curves are built from smooth, near-circular segments, while terminals are clean and blunt, keeping the overall silhouette sturdy and graphic. The set maintains a consistent rightward slant and strong rhythm, with widths varying by character to preserve natural word shapes.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, sports-related branding, packaging callouts, and social media graphics. It can also work for bold logotypes or campaign lockups where an energetic slant and substantial color are desirable.
The tone is bold and kinetic, projecting speed and assertiveness while staying approachable due to its rounded forms. It feels contemporary and sporty, with a friendly bluntness that reads as confident rather than formal.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a fast, forward-leaning stance and rounded, geometric construction. Its consistent obliquing and sturdy shapes suggest a focus on attention-grabbing display typography that remains legible and friendly at large sizes.
At display sizes the weight creates a strong, poster-like presence; in longer lines the dense counters and heavy mass can make texture feel dark. The numerals match the letterforms in weight and curvature, supporting cohesive headline and branding use.
