This typeface is a heavy, geometric sans with a pronounced rightward oblique and broad proportions. Strokes are low-contrast with rounded terminals and smooth, circular bowls, creating a clean, contemporary rhythm. Counters are relatively open for the weight, and the lowercase shows a tall x-height with compact ascenders/descenders, giving text a dense, forward-leaning presence. Numerals and capitals follow the same sturdy construction, with consistent curvature and sturdy horizontal strokes.
Best suited to short, high-impact typography such as headlines, posters, sports or activewear branding, packaging callouts, and bold marketing statements. It can also work for UI or signage accents when used sparingly at larger sizes, where the strong slant and heavy strokes reinforce emphasis.
The overall tone feels assertive and fast-moving, with an athletic, headline-forward attitude. Its rounded geometry keeps the voice approachable rather than severe, balancing impact with friendliness.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a contemporary, geometric voice—combining wide, rounded forms with a pronounced oblique to convey speed, confidence, and modernity in display settings.
The oblique angle is strong enough to read as intentionally dynamic rather than a subtle slant, and the wide set enhances a bold, poster-like footprint. In running text, the heavy color and tight vertical economy make it most comfortable at larger sizes where shapes and counters can breathe.
