A heavy, right-leaning sans with compact counters and strongly sculpted forms. Strokes show clear thick–thin modulation with chunky, wedge-like terminals and rounded corners, giving the letters a carved, poster-cut look rather than a purely geometric build. The rhythm is tight and dense, with sturdy vertical emphasis, squared shoulders, and occasional notch-like joins that add texture at larger sizes. Numerals follow the same robust, slightly condensed construction with prominent curves and firm, flattened ends.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and title treatments where a forceful, fast-moving voice is needed. It also fits sports branding, energetic campaigns, and packaging or labels that benefit from a bold, retro-leaning display style. For longer passages, larger sizes and generous spacing help maintain clarity.
The overall tone is energetic and competitive, with a retro display attitude that reads loud and confident. Its oblique slant and muscular shapes create a sense of speed and forward motion, while the sculpted contrast adds a dramatic, attention-grabbing presence.
The letterforms appear designed to deliver maximum impact with a sense of motion—combining a slanted stance, condensed counters, and sculpted contrast to stand out in display settings. The notched joins and wedge terminals suggest an intention to feel engineered and athletic rather than neutral or purely utilitarian.
The design favors impact over delicacy: internal spaces are relatively small and the bold modeling can darken quickly in long lines of text. It holds up best when given room to breathe, where the distinctive terminals and contrast can register clearly.
