A heavy, oblique sans with broad proportions and smooth, rounded outer curves paired with cleanly cut terminals. Strokes stay largely uniform, giving the forms a solid, blocky color on the page, while counters remain open enough to keep letters from clogging at display sizes. The construction leans geometric—circular bowls and straightforward joins—tempered by slight optical shaping in curves and diagonals for stability. Overall spacing reads generous, with a strong rightward slant that creates forward motion and a tight, cohesive texture in words.
Well suited to headlines and short-form messaging where impact and immediacy matter—posters, hero banners, social graphics, and promotional layouts. The sturdy, slanted shapes also fit sports and fitness branding, product packaging, and punchy UI callouts where a dynamic emphasis is desired.
The tone is energetic and contemporary, with a confident, athletic feel. Its strong weight and forward-leaning stance suggest speed, momentum, and decisiveness rather than delicacy or formality.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, modern sans voice with built-in motion through obliquing, balancing geometric clarity with a dense, attention-grabbing presence for display-driven typography.
Capitals appear especially robust and billboard-ready, while the lowercase maintains a clear, utilitarian rhythm that favors impact over nuance. Numerals match the letterforms in weight and stance, reinforcing a consistent, forceful typographic voice across mixed content.
