A heavy, oblique sans with compact proportions and smooth, rounded curves. Strokes are largely uniform with minimal modulation, giving letters a solid, high-impact silhouette. The italic angle is pronounced and consistent, with tightened internal spaces in forms like B, a, and e, and clean terminals that stay crisp at display sizes. Numerals are similarly sturdy and straightforward, matching the letterforms’ dense rhythm and forward slant.
Best suited to display applications where slanted, high-impact type is needed—headlines, posters, sports or fitness branding, and promotional graphics. It can work for short bursts of emphasis in UI or editorial callouts, but the dense texture and strong angle are most effective at larger sizes or in brief passages.
The overall tone is energetic and assertive, with a strong sense of motion created by the steep slant and dense, dark color. It reads as contemporary and performance-oriented—more about speed and impact than softness or formality.
Designed to deliver a forceful, fast-moving sans look: sturdy construction, minimal contrast, and a strong oblique stance to communicate momentum and modernity. The design prioritizes clarity and impact in display contexts while keeping shapes clean and broadly neutral.
Uppercase shapes stay simple and geometric, with a rounded C/G/O family and a clean, open S. The lowercase uses single-storey a and g, reinforcing an industrial, utilitarian feel. Spacing in the samples appears relatively tight, producing a compact, punchy texture in headline settings.
