A heavy, oblique sans with strongly rounded geometry and broad, low-slung proportions. Strokes are thick and clean with smooth curves, tight counters, and compact apertures that create a dense, high-impact texture. Terminals are blunt and minimally tapered, and the oblique slant is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and figures, giving the set a unified forward motion. The overall rhythm favors wide bowls and sturdy horizontals, producing a blocky silhouette that stays crisp at display sizes.
Best suited to large-scale applications where impact and momentum matter: headlines, posters, sports and fitness branding, product packaging, and bold logotypes. The dense counters and heavy strokes make it most effective when given breathing room and set in short bursts rather than long body text.
The tone is energetic and forceful, with a fast, sporty feel driven by the consistent slant and compressed internal spaces. It reads as contemporary and performance-oriented, suggesting speed and confidence more than refinement or neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch with a sleek, forward-leaning attitude, combining rounded, geometric forms with a strong oblique slant for a sense of speed. It prioritizes presence and brandability in display typography.
Uppercase forms show a strong geometric underpinning with rounded interiors, while lowercase maintains a robust, compact build with single-storey shapes where applicable and a pronounced oblique stance. Numerals follow the same chunky construction and appear designed to match headline settings rather than delicate tabular contexts.
