A heavy, forward-slanted sans with broad proportions and rounded, slightly squared curves. Strokes are thick and consistent, with gently softened corners and clean, uninterrupted terminals that keep counters open despite the weight. The italic construction feels engineered rather than calligraphic, producing a steady rhythm and a strong horizontal push in text. Numerals share the same wide, sturdy build, reading clearly and evenly at display sizes.
Best suited for high-impact display work such as headlines, posters, and bold branding where a sense of speed is desirable. It also fits sports and automotive-style identities, energetic packaging, and attention-grabbing signage, especially when set large for maximum clarity and punch.
The overall tone is fast and forceful, conveying speed, strength, and momentum. Its wide stance and pronounced slant give it an energetic, competitive feel that reads as contemporary and performance-oriented.
Likely designed to deliver maximum impact and immediacy with a streamlined, forward-leaning stance. The rounded geometry and consistent stroke treatment suggest an aim for modern readability while projecting motion and confidence in short phrases and branding lines.
Uppercase forms present a stable, low-contrast silhouette with generous bowls and rounded apertures, while lowercase keeps a sturdy, uniform texture. Spacing in the samples appears tight and dense, reinforcing a compact, high-impact typographic color best suited to larger settings.
