A heavy, oblique sans with broad proportions and tightly packed, punchy shapes. Strokes are uniformly thick with minimal modulation, and many joins are squared off, giving letters a sturdy, cut-from-solid feel. Curves are generous and open—especially in rounded capitals and numerals—while diagonals and angled terminals add forward motion. Lowercase forms are compact and robust, with short, thick extenders and rounded bowls that keep counters clear at display sizes.
Best suited to display roles such as headlines, posters, promotional graphics, and brand marks where strong presence and quick recognition matter. It also works well for sporty or energetic packaging and merchandising, and for short callouts where the oblique rhythm can drive emphasis.
The overall tone is loud, fast, and confident, with a sporty slant that suggests motion and impact. Its chunky construction and rounded geometry keep it approachable rather than severe, making it feel contemporary and attention-seeking.
The design intention reads as a high-impact, modern sans built for visibility and momentum. The combination of wide, rounded forms and a pronounced slant aims to deliver a dynamic, athletic voice while maintaining clean, uncomplicated letterforms.
Spacing appears designed for headline settings, where the strong weight and wide stance create a dense, graphic texture. Numerals are bold and simple, matching the letters’ rounded, high-ink silhouette for consistent emphasis in mixed text.
