A heavy, oblique sans with rounded, superelliptical construction and tightly managed counters. Strokes are thick and uniform, with soft corners and occasional angled terminals that reinforce forward motion. The uppercase feels compact and muscular, while the lowercase keeps a steady x-height with simplified, single-storey forms and sturdy joins. Spacing is intentionally tight, producing a dense texture that reads as a cohesive slab of black when set in lines.
Best suited to short, high-impact applications such as headlines, posters, sports branding, and bold promotional graphics where immediacy matters. It also works well for packaging and product marks that need a compact, energetic wordshape. For longer passages, it’s most effective at larger sizes with generous leading to keep the dark texture from becoming too dense.
The font projects speed and impact, with a confident, no-nonsense tone that feels at home in athletic and performance-driven settings. Its rounded geometry keeps the aggression friendly, giving it a sporty, late-20th-century display flavor rather than a harsh industrial feel.
This design appears intended as a forceful display sans that combines rounded superellipse forms with an oblique stance to communicate motion and strength. The uniform weight, compact proportions, and simplified shapes suggest a focus on punchy branding and attention-grabbing titling rather than delicate text setting.
Round letters like O/Q show a squarish, rounded-rectangle silhouette, and the oblique angle is consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals. Numerals are similarly bold and compact, designed to hold up as solid shapes at a distance. In longer text samples, the dense weight and tight spacing create strong emphasis but can reduce readability at smaller sizes.
