A heavy, slanted sans with compact counters and broad, rounded bowls that keep forms readable at large sizes. Curves are smooth and geometric, while joins and terminals lean toward angled cuts rather than fully rounded endings, creating a brisk, forward rhythm. Uppercase forms are sturdy and simplified; lowercase is similarly robust with single-storey a and g, a compact e, and a short-armed t, all contributing to a tight, punchy texture. Numerals are substantial and clean, matching the letterforms with consistent stroke weight and minimal detailing.
Well suited to headlines, short statements, and display typography where a bold, fast look is desired. It fits sports and fitness branding, promotional graphics, packaging callouts, and large-format signage where its dense weight and slanted stance can deliver strong visual impact.
The overall tone is energetic and assertive, with a forward-leaning posture that suggests motion and urgency. Its thick, simplified shapes feel modern and performance-oriented, conveying confidence and immediacy without becoming decorative.
Designed to provide a high-impact sans voice with a sense of speed, using a strong slant, simplified geometry, and compact internal spaces to produce a crisp, attention-grabbing texture in display settings.
The slant and strong diagonals (notably in A, K, V, W, X, Y, and Z) create a pronounced directional flow. Counters stay relatively small, so the face reads best when given enough size or spacing, where its solid silhouette and clear word shapes can carry the message.
