A heavy, slanted sans with compact proportions and a tightly packed rhythm. Strokes are uniform and dense, with rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) counters and softened corners that keep the forms from feeling sharp despite the mass. Curves are broad and controlled, terminals are clean, and joins stay sturdy, producing a smooth, machined look. The lowercase shows a large x-height with short ascenders/descenders, maintaining strong color and legibility at display sizes.
Well suited to headlines, posters, and campaign-style graphics where impact and momentum matter. It can work effectively for sports branding, apparel marks, event promotion, and bold packaging callouts, as well as short signage messages where high visual weight is an advantage.
The overall tone is fast and forceful, with a forward-leaning stance that reads energetic and assertive. Its chunky geometry and softened rounding give it a contemporary, athletic feel—confident and loud without becoming spiky or aggressive.
The design appears aimed at delivering maximum presence in a condensed footprint, combining a slanted, energetic posture with rounded-rect geometry for a modern, engineered look. It prioritizes punchy display readability and strong brand voice over delicate detail.
The condensed widths and thick strokes create strong texture in lines of text, making it best when ample tracking and generous leading are available. The numerals are similarly compact and weighty, matching the alphabet’s solid, uniform presence.
