A heavy, slanted sans with compact counters and rounded, slightly squared-off curves. Strokes stay consistently thick with smooth joins and minimal modulation, producing a dense, high-ink texture. Letterforms lean forward uniformly and favor broad, stable shapes—round letters like O/C are wide and open, while diagonals and terminals read as clean, blunt cuts. Spacing appears tight and purposeful, creating a strong horizontal rhythm in lines of text.
Best suited to large-size settings where its dense weight and slanted rhythm can deliver impact—headlines, posters, event graphics, and brand marks. It also fits energetic packaging and sports or entertainment applications where a strong, forward-driving voice is desired.
The overall tone is assertive and kinetic, with a forward-leaning stance that suggests speed and momentum. Its chunky forms and confident silhouettes feel sporty and promotional, with a subtle retro display flavor that reads loud and friendly rather than technical.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum presence and motion in display typography, combining sturdy geometric curves with a consistent forward slant for an immediate, dynamic read. Its construction emphasizes bold silhouettes and compact interior spaces to stay legible and forceful at large sizes.
The design prioritizes bold silhouette over fine detail: smaller interior spaces (especially in letters like a, e, s, and numerals) increase visual weight and impact. Numerals follow the same sturdy, rounded construction, making them feel cohesive in headlines and short bursts of copy.
