A heavy, slanted display face with broad proportions and compact counters, built from chunky, mostly geometric forms. Strokes are solid and dense, with a crisp inline cut running through each letter that creates a layered, carved look rather than an outline. Curves are rounded and full (notably in C/O/S), while joins and terminals stay blunt and squared, keeping a strong poster-like silhouette. The inline treatment is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and figures, producing a rhythmic stripe that reads as motion and depth.
Best suited for big, bold applications such as headlines, posters, event graphics, and logo wordmarks where the inline carving can read clearly. It also fits punchy packaging, merchandise, and retro-inspired branding systems that benefit from a sense of speed and dimensionality. For long passages or small UI text, the dense forms and internal detailing can become visually busy.
The overall tone is loud and kinetic, with a distinctly retro, sports-and-signage energy. The italic slant and internal stripe suggest speed and impact, giving the face a confident, attention-grabbing personality that feels at home in expressive branding and headlines.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a fast, dynamic slant and a distinctive inline cut that adds depth without relying on shading. Its chunky construction and consistent internal carving point to a display-first purpose: memorable shapes, strong silhouettes, and a retro-leaning voice suited to attention-driven typography.
Because the inline is thin relative to the mass of the strokes, the design holds its character best at larger sizes where the carved detail remains visible. Numerals and round letters emphasize the dimensional effect particularly well, while narrow openings in some lowercase forms can visually fill in at small sizes.
