A heavy, oblique sans with compact proportions and rounded, superellipse-like shaping in counters and curves. Strokes are low-contrast and largely uniform, with terminals that read as cleanly cut and slightly softened rather than sharp. Round letters like O/C/G are squarish-rounded, while diagonals in A/V/W/X are sturdy and tightly drawn, producing a dense, energetic rhythm. Numerals follow the same robust geometry, with broad bowls and stable, blocky silhouettes.
Best suited to display use such as headlines, posters, and brand marks where its dense weight and oblique stance can communicate speed and strength. It also fits sports and fitness branding, product packaging, and bold UI moments like banners or feature callouts where quick, high-contrast presence (against the background) is desired.
The overall tone is fast, punchy, and performance-oriented, combining a modern geometric feel with a forward-leaning slant. It reads confident and action-driven, suited to messaging that wants urgency and impact without feeling decorative.
The font appears designed to deliver a modern, high-impact voice built from rounded-rectangular forms and consistent stroke weight, with an oblique posture to imply motion. Its geometry prioritizes strong, compact letterforms that remain recognizable and forceful in attention-grabbing settings.
The design emphasizes strong silhouettes and tight internal space, which helps it hold together at larger sizes and in short bursts of text. The oblique angle is consistent across uppercase and lowercase, giving lines a strong directional flow and a distinctly headline-first personality.
