A heavy oblique sans with broad, rounded geometry and smooth, continuous curves. Strokes are thick and largely uniform, with clean terminals and minimal modulation, giving the letters a solid, blocky presence. Counters are relatively tight (notably in forms like e, a, and 8), and the overall proportions favor sturdy, wide shapes with a consistent forward slant. The lowercase shows a single-storey a and g, simple construction, and generous curves that keep the texture dense and even in words.
Best suited to short, high-visibility settings such as headlines, poster copy, brand marks, sports and fitness graphics, and bold packaging statements. It can work for brief emphasis within layouts where a strong, slanted, contemporary sans is needed, but its dense texture favors larger sizes over extended reading.
The tone is assertive and energetic, with a forward-leaning stance that reads as active and performance-oriented. Its heavy color and rounded construction feel contemporary and approachable, while still projecting strength and impact.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a streamlined, geometric sans structure, combining a strong forward slant with rounded forms to communicate motion, confidence, and modernity in display typography.
At display sizes the forms look crisp and stable, and the oblique angle is pronounced enough to be a defining feature rather than a subtle slant. The numerals match the letterforms in weight and roundness, maintaining a cohesive, high-impact rhythm across mixed alphanumeric settings.
