A compact, slanted sans with heavy strokes and rounded, built-up curves. Letterforms are tightly proportioned with a compressed width and a forward-leaning stance, producing a strong horizontal sweep in words. Terminals are generally clean and blunt, with occasional angled cuts that reinforce motion, while bowls (like O, Q, a, e) stay smooth and elliptical. Counters are relatively small for the weight, and spacing appears firm and economical, creating dense, impactful text color in both uppercase and lowercase.
Best suited to display applications where dense, high-contrast presence is needed without relying on fine details—such as headlines, posters, sports or fitness identities, event promotions, and bold packaging callouts. It can also work for short UI labels or badges when a strong, fast tone is desired, but its weight and tight counters favor larger sizes.
The overall tone is energetic and assertive, with a fast, competitive feel reminiscent of athletic branding and high-impact headlines. Its steep slant and compact rhythm suggest speed and urgency, while the rounded construction keeps it approachable rather than harsh.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in minimal horizontal space, using a strong oblique stance and compact proportions to communicate speed and emphasis. Its simplified, rounded sans construction prioritizes clarity at display sizes while maintaining a distinctive, high-energy silhouette.
Uppercase forms read as poster-ready blocks with consistent slant, and the lowercase maintains the same forward momentum, giving mixed-case lines a cohesive, compressed cadence. Numerals are similarly bold and oblique, suited to prominent display rather than quiet text settings.
