A heavy, forward-slanted sans with broad, rounded counters and tightly controlled apertures. Strokes are thick and largely uniform, with blunt terminals and gentle curvature in bowls, giving the forms a compact, high-impact silhouette. The italics feel constructed rather than calligraphic, with a steady slant across caps and lowercase and simplified joins that keep shapes dense and legible at display sizes. Numerals are sturdy and straightforward, matching the letters’ mass and rounded geometry.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and promotional layouts where strong presence and quick readability are needed. It also fits sports and active lifestyle branding, packaging callouts, and bold UI banners, especially when set with ample space around the text to let the heavy forms breathe.
The overall tone is assertive and fast-moving, suggesting momentum and strength. Its dense color and consistent slant read as contemporary and sporty, with a straightforward, no-nonsense attitude suited to attention-grabbing messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a consistent forward slant, combining rounded, approachable shapes with a dense, powerful weight for display-driven typography.
Uppercase letters appear wide and stable with strong vertical presence, while lowercase forms maintain a compact rhythm and prominent curves (notably in a, e, g, and s). The design’s tight spacing and heavy stroke weight create a solid text block that favors short bursts of copy over extended reading.
