A heavy, wide display face with compact apertures and pronounced weight contrast between dominant verticals and tapered joins. Forms are built from sturdy geometric masses softened by rounded corners and swelling curves, creating a distinctly chunky rhythm. Counters tend to be small and enclosed (notably in B, 8, and e), and terminals often finish with subtle wedge-like or scooped shaping that reads as ink-trap-like at this size. Spacing and sidebearings feel tight and energetic, and the overall silhouette is strongly horizontal, favoring broad letters and large, confident capitals.
Best suited to large sizes where its dense counters and contrast can read clearly—headline systems, poster typography, wordmarks, and bold packaging callouts. It can also work for short editorial display lines where a loud, compact texture is desired.
The tone is bold and attention-seeking, mixing a contemporary sports-title punch with a retro, poster-like warmth. Its rounded bulk and tight counters give it a playful toughness—friendly at a glance, but still forceful and commanding in headlines.
Likely designed as a high-impact display sans that maximizes presence through width and mass while adding character via tapered joins and rounded, ink-trap-like details. The emphasis appears to be on strong silhouettes and a memorable rhythm rather than neutral text setting.
Lowercase shows a compact, sturdy build with a single-storey a and g and a strong, squat presence across words. The numerals are large and display-oriented, with especially weighty bowls and closed shapes that maintain consistency with the uppercase.
