A heavy, oblique sans with broad, rounded-rectangle construction and tightly controlled curves. Strokes are thick and smooth with subtly squared terminals, creating a soft-edged blocky silhouette rather than a sharp geometric feel. Counters are compact and the joins show small notches and cut-ins that read like ink-trap-inspired detailing, helping define interior spaces in dense shapes. Overall spacing and rhythm are sturdy and forward-leaning, with a consistent, display-oriented texture across letters and numerals.
Best suited for large-size applications where its dense weight and rounded block forms can deliver immediate impact—headlines, posters, event graphics, sports and action-themed branding, and packaging. It can work for short bursts of copy such as taglines or callouts, but its heavy texture is optimized for display rather than extended reading.
The font projects speed and impact, combining a sporty slant with chunky, rounded forms. Its tone feels assertive and energetic, with a slightly retro, headline-driven attitude that reads as bold and promotional rather than quiet or editorial.
Designed to deliver high-impact, motion-forward typography with rounded, superelliptical shapes that stay legible under heavy weight. The oblique stance and compact counters prioritize presence and speed cues, aiming for a modern display sans that feels athletic and promotional.
The numerals and uppercase share the same rounded, compressed interior spaces, producing strong color in text blocks. The italic angle is pronounced enough to suggest motion, while the rounded corners keep the voice friendly instead of aggressive.
