A heavy, right-slanted sans with broad proportions and smooth, low-contrast strokes. Letterforms are built from rounded, elliptical curves paired with blunt, angled terminals, creating a sturdy, slightly compressed rhythm despite the width. Counters are fairly open for the weight, and joins are clean and geometric rather than calligraphic. The lowercase shows a tall presence with short extenders, while figures are robust and display-like, designed to hold up as solid silhouettes at larger sizes.
Performs best in headlines, short copy, and branding where strong presence and speed are desirable—such as sports identities, event promos, apparel graphics, packaging callouts, and high-visibility signage. It can work for brief editorial pulls or UI highlights, but the heavy slant and weight are most effective when used sparingly.
The overall tone is energetic and forward-driving, with a strong, athletic feel. Its slant and dense weight read as assertive and attention-seeking, suited to messaging that needs momentum and impact rather than quiet neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-impact sans voice with a sense of motion. It prioritizes bold legibility and strong silhouettes, aiming for confident display typography that reads quickly and feels active.
Diagonal strokes and angled endings add a crisp, engineered edge that keeps the design from feeling soft, even with its rounded construction. The boldness and slant increase visual texture in paragraphs, making it better for short bursts than long-form reading.
