A heavy, right-slanted sans with broad, rounded-rectangle construction and smooth, continuous curves. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, creating dense silhouettes and strong typographic color. Counters are relatively tight and the joins are rounded, giving letters a soft-cornered, superelliptical feel even where shapes square off. The italics are emphatic rather than delicate, with a forward-leaning stance and a slightly compressed internal spacing that helps the forms read as bold blocks at display sizes.
Best suited to display roles where bold, kinetic emphasis is needed—headlines, posters, campaign graphics, and strong typographic lockups. It also fits energetic brand systems such as sports, streetwear, events, and packaging where a compact, high-contrast-in-size silhouette helps type stay legible from a distance.
The overall tone is assertive and high-impact, with a forward motion that feels athletic and attention-grabbing. Rounded corners keep it from feeling harsh, balancing punchiness with a friendly, contemporary warmth.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact with a fast, forward-leaning rhythm while retaining a smooth, approachable geometry. It prioritizes bold presence, simplified forms, and consistent weight for clear reproduction in branding and promotional contexts.
Capitals read especially sturdy and poster-like, while the lowercase maintains clear differentiation through simplified, geometric bowls and open terminals. Numerals match the same chunky, rounded geometry and feel built for headline clarity rather than quiet text settings.
