A heavy, slanted sans with rounded, slightly condensed proportions and smooth, low-contrast strokes. Curves are full and circular (notably in C/O/Q), while straights are sturdy and subtly tapered, producing a lively, hand-leaning rhythm despite the overall geometric construction. Terminals are generally blunt with soft rounding, counters stay fairly open for the weight, and the set shows noticeable width variation across letters that adds bounce in text. Figures are sturdy and compact, matching the letterforms’ punchy, ink-trap-free silhouette.
Best suited for headlines, poster typography, and bold branding where a compact, slanted sans can deliver impact quickly. It also fits packaging and labels, sports or action-oriented graphics, and social or digital promos that benefit from strong, rounded letterforms.
The overall tone is energetic and assertive, with a sporty, vintage-adjacent flavor. Its slant and rounded massing feel friendly rather than formal, projecting momentum and confidence suited to attention-grabbing messaging.
The design appears intended to blend geometric simplicity with a dynamic, forward slant, creating a sturdy display voice that remains approachable. It prioritizes bold presence and quick readability in short-to-medium text over delicate detailing.
The texture in paragraphs is dense and dark, with a forward-leaning cadence that keeps lines feeling in motion. Uppercase forms read solid and poster-ready, while lowercase has a simple, workmanlike build that supports short blocks of copy at larger sizes.
