A strongly slanted, high-contrast display face with a heavy main stroke and sharply tapered hairlines. The letterforms are broad and compactly fit, with rounded counters and teardrop-like terminals that tighten the ends of strokes. Curves (C, S, O, Q) show smooth, sculpted weight transitions, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) are angular and energetic. The lowercase is sturdy and compact with a single-storey a, a prominent descender on g, and a tall, cleanly defined t crossbar; overall spacing reads tight and punchy in text.
Best used for headlines, cover lines, and short bursts of copy where contrast and slant can create motion and impact. It can work well for sports and lifestyle branding, posters, and packaging where a bold, dynamic typographic signature is needed, especially at medium-to-large sizes.
The tone is emphatic and kinetic, combining italic speed with a polished, editorial kind of drama. Its high contrast and broad proportions give it a confident, attention-grabbing voice that feels suited to headlines and promotional messaging rather than quiet body copy.
The font appears designed to deliver fast, high-impact typography by pairing a strong italic stance with dramatic stroke modulation and compact, wide-set forms. The emphasis is on recognizability and energy, aiming for a contemporary display look with a hint of retro headline styling.
Numerals are heavy and rounded with distinctive contrast-driven shapes that keep a consistent rhythm alongside letters. The design’s visual identity comes largely from the wedge-like hairlines and tapered joins, which create bright internal highlights and a crisp, poster-ready texture at larger sizes.
