A heavy, forward-slanted sans with broad proportions and rounded-rectangle construction. Strokes are thick and compact, with small, enclosed counters and smooth, softened corners that keep the mass from feeling brittle. Many joins and terminals show angled cuts and wedge-like notches, creating a subtly engineered, “machined” rhythm across letters and numerals. Curves read as superelliptical rather than circular, and overall spacing feels tight and dense, emphasizing impact and momentum.
Best suited for display work where bold, kinetic impact is the goal: sports identities, event posters, gaming/esports graphics, product packaging, and attention-grabbing headers. It also works well for wordmarks and badges where the chunky, rounded construction can carry a brand on its own.
The face conveys speed and force: a headline-driven, competitive tone that feels at home in athletics, motorsport, and action-oriented branding. Its rounded geometry adds a slightly retro, arcade/tech flavor, balancing the aggression with a friendly, durable solidity.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch with a streamlined, speed-forward silhouette. Rounded superelliptical forms and angled cut details suggest a contemporary industrial aesthetic aimed at confident, high-energy messaging.
The sample text shows strong horizontal presence and a pronounced lean, which helps short phrases feel dynamic. At smaller sizes the tight counters and dense weight may reduce clarity, while at display sizes the distinctive cut-ins and rounded block forms become a key stylistic signature.
