A heavy, right-slanted sans with broad proportions and a compact, impactful silhouette. Strokes are uniformly thick with rounded joins and corners that keep the forms friendly despite the mass. Curves tend toward squarish rounds, with tight internal counters and sturdy terminals that read as clipped and purposeful rather than tapered. The overall rhythm is dense and consistent, built for strong color on the page and clear word shapes at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, short calls-to-action, and logo or wordmark work where maximum impact is needed. It performs well on posters, packaging, and sports or lifestyle branding, and can add punch to social graphics and promotional banners when set with generous spacing and limited copy.
The tone is bold and kinetic, with a sporty, forward-leaning attitude. Its chunky rounds and tight counters add a playful toughness, making the voice feel confident and attention-grabbing rather than delicate or formal.
The design appears intended to deliver high-impact display typography with a sense of speed and modernity. Its combination of broad shapes, dense color, and softened geometry suggests a goal of being both forceful and approachable for branding-forward communication.
Numerals share the same compact, weighty construction and maintain a consistent slant, giving mixed text a cohesive, poster-like presence. The italic angle is pronounced enough to add motion without turning the letterforms into scripts or calligraphy.
