A slanted sans with sturdy, low-contrast strokes and broad proportions. Letterforms are built from clean, rounded geometry with gently squared terminals and minimal stroke modulation, creating a smooth, even texture. Curves are full and controlled (notably in C, O, and S), while diagonals (A, K, V, W, X, Y) feel crisp and stable. Lowercase forms show a tall x-height and open, simple constructions, with single-storey a and g and a compact, functional rhythm across words. Numerals are similarly robust and rounded, matching the set’s steady weight and forward-leaning stance.
Well-suited to headlines, branding, and promotional typography where a strong, energetic presence is needed. The sturdy construction and clear silhouettes also make it a solid option for packaging, signage, and sports- or tech-adjacent identities that benefit from a forward-leaning, modern voice.
The overall tone is assertive and fast-moving, with a contemporary, performance-oriented feel. The consistent slant and broad stance project momentum and confidence, reading as practical and no-nonsense rather than delicate or expressive.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, contemporary sans optimized for impact, with an italicized stance that adds speed and emphasis while keeping forms straightforward and highly legible.
Counters tend to be moderately tight at heavier joins, which reinforces a dense, impactful color in text. The slant is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, and spacing appears tuned for strong word shapes in display and short-to-medium text settings.
