A heavy, forward-leaning sans with broad proportions and rounded, superellipse-like curves. Strokes are thick and confident with smooth joins, compact internal counters, and gently squared-off curves that keep the shapes feeling engineered rather than soft. The italic angle is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, and the overall rhythm reads blocky and stable despite the slant.
Best suited to large sizes where its dense strokes and compact counters stay clear—headlines, posters, sports and event branding, packaging, and bold wordmarks. It can also work for short UI labels or signage when strong emphasis and quick recognition are more important than long-form reading comfort.
The tone is loud, fast, and punchy—built to project confidence and momentum. Its wide stance and steep oblique give it a sporty, headline-driven personality with a touch of playful exaggeration.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a modern, geometric voice: wide letterforms, rounded-rectangle curves, and a consistent oblique to suggest speed and confidence. It prioritizes bold presence and brandable silhouette over delicate detail.
Round characters like O/C/G and numerals like 0/8/9 emphasize rounded-rectangle geometry, while diagonals in A/V/W/X feel sturdy and tightly constructed. The lowercase keeps a single-storey, simplified feel with short ascenders and dense counters, reinforcing a compact, impact-first texture in text.
