A heavy, oblique sans with compact proportions and rounded-rectangle (superelliptical) curves. Strokes are thick and mostly uniform, with softened corners and subtly squared counters that keep round letters feeling sturdy rather than geometric. The slant is consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals, producing a forward-leaning rhythm; joins and terminals tend to be clipped on an angle, reinforcing the motion. Lowercase forms are robust with large internal spaces for the weight, and the overall texture is dense and punchy in text settings.
Best suited to display sizes where its weight and oblique momentum can carry impact—headlines, sports and fitness branding, event posters, and attention-grabbing packaging. It can also work for UI labels or promotional banners when a strong, condensed-feeling presence is desired without sacrificing legibility.
The overall tone is fast, confident, and athletic, with a contemporary, no-nonsense voice. Its bold, slanted stance reads as energetic and competitive, suited to messaging that wants to feel immediate and forceful rather than delicate or editorial.
The design appears intended to deliver high-impact readability with a sense of speed: a sturdy, rounded-rect sans pushed forward by a consistent oblique angle and angled cuts. It prioritizes bold presence, clear silhouettes, and a contemporary, performance-oriented attitude.
In the sample text, word shapes remain distinct despite the heavy weight, helped by open apertures and clear figure silhouettes. The design leans more toward squared-round construction than purely circular forms, which gives it a muscular, engineered feel in headlines.
