A heavy, wide slab-serif italic with pronounced, square-ended serifs and a strong rightward slant. Strokes are thick with clear contrast between verticals and thinner joins, producing crisp internal shapes and strong silhouette emphasis. Terminals and serifs read flat and blocky, while curves are slightly softened, giving round letters a dense, compact feel. Spacing appears tight and the overall rhythm is energetic, with large, weighty forms that hold together as bold texture in lines of text.
Best suited to large sizes where its slabs, contrast, and italic momentum can read clearly—headlines, posters, short emphatic statements, and identity work. It also fits energetic packaging and sports or entertainment graphics where bold, wide letterforms help create instant impact.
The tone is assertive and lively, combining a vintage display feel with a buoyant, slightly mischievous rhythm from the italic slant and chunky slabs. It suggests attention-grabbing headlines, upbeat branding, and a confident, extroverted voice rather than quiet neutrality.
Likely designed as a display slab with an italicized, wide stance to maximize visual punch and create a distinctive, retro-leaning voice. The square slabs and dense curves prioritize recognizability and strong typographic color in short runs of text.
Uppercase forms feel sturdy and poster-oriented, while the lowercase retains the same muscular construction with prominent dots and compact bowls. Numerals match the letter weight and slant, maintaining a cohesive, billboard-ready color across mixed text.
