A heavy, forward-leaning sans with compact proportions and rounded-rectangle geometry. Strokes are thick and steady with softened corners and squared-off terminals, creating a sturdy, blocky silhouette. Curves in letters like C, G, O, and S feel superelliptical rather than perfectly circular, while counters stay fairly tight, emphasizing a dense, punchy texture. The italic angle is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, and the overall rhythm favors broad vertical masses with minimal tapering.
Well-suited to sports and performance branding, bold headlines, posters, and attention-grabbing short copy where momentum and impact are priorities. It also fits apparel graphics and packaging that benefit from a strong, condensed, italic voice and a modern, engineered look.
The font projects speed and impact, with a driven, performance-oriented tone. Its dense weight, slant, and rounded block forms read as contemporary and assertive, suggesting motion and mechanical strength rather than delicacy.
Designed to deliver a fast, emphatic display presence through a consistent italic slant, compact widths, and rounded-rectangular construction. The intention appears to balance hard, blocky mass with softened corners to keep the tone modern and approachable while staying forceful.
Uppercase forms stay simple and geometric, while the lowercase maintains a single-storey, utilitarian feel that keeps text compact and forceful. Numerals match the same rounded-corner, slabby construction and hold up well at display sizes, where the large black shapes and tight apertures become part of the style.
