A heavy, slanted sans with broad proportions and a consistent, built-from-geometry construction. Strokes are thick and even with rounded bowls and softly squared terminals, producing a steady, mechanical rhythm. Counters stay fairly open for a weight this dark, while joins and diagonals feel decisive and slightly condensed at the joints, helping letters stay compact and uniform. Numerals match the same sturdy, forward-leaning structure, with large interior spaces and simple, no-nonsense shapes.
Best suited to headlines, short bursts of copy, and display typography where impact and momentum matter—posters, signage, branding marks, and packaging. It can also work for UI labels or dashboards when a strong, utilitarian emphasis is desired, especially at sizes where the heavy strokes have room to breathe.
The overall tone is energetic and workmanlike, combining a forward-leaning motion with a dense, blocky presence. It reads as confident and practical rather than delicate, evoking a contemporary industrial or athletic voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, forward-moving sans voice with consistent spacing and sturdy, geometric letterforms. It prioritizes uniformity and impact over fine detail, aiming for quick recognition and a strong, modern presence.
The oblique angle is pronounced and consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, creating strong directional flow in text. The design favors clarity at medium-to-large sizes, with simplified details and robust forms that keep word shapes cohesive.
