A heavy, oblique sans with rounded-rectangle (superelliptic) construction and smooth, low-contrast strokes. Counters are generous and simplified, with softened corners and blunt terminals that keep forms sturdy and highly legible. The italics feel engineered rather than calligraphic, with a consistent slant and compact, forward-leaning proportions. Figures and capitals read cleanly and uniformly, with an overall crisp, contemporary rhythm.
Best suited for headlines, brand marks, posters, and promotional graphics where a bold, fast-leaning voice is needed. It also works well in interface callouts, labels, and short UI strings thanks to its clear shapes and sturdy, simplified counters. For longer text, it will be most comfortable at larger sizes where the weight and slant can act as a deliberate stylistic emphasis.
The tone is energetic and assertive, with a streamlined, performance-minded feel. Its rounded geometry adds approachability while the strong weight and slant project speed and momentum. The overall impression is modern and confident, suited to brands that want impact without harshness.
Designed to deliver a high-impact italic voice with a clean geometric backbone and softened superelliptic curves. The goal appears to be combining speed and power with friendly rounding, producing a contemporary sans that feels at home in both sporty and tech-forward contexts.
Round letters like O/Q and curved lowercase forms lean on squarish curves, giving the design a distinctive superellipse signature. The punctuation and numerals maintain the same sturdy, rounded logic, helping mixed alphanumeric settings look cohesive.
