A heavy, oblique sans with smooth, rounded curves and sturdy, low-contrast strokes. Letterforms lean consistently forward, with broad circular bowls (notably in C, G, O, Q) and compact, efficiently shaped counters that keep the texture dense and punchy. Terminals are clean and largely sheared by the slant rather than finished with distinctive flares, giving a crisp, contemporary edge. Proportions read balanced rather than condensed, with a straightforward, utilitarian construction across capitals, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited for headlines and short bursts of copy where the strong, slanted texture can carry energy and emphasis. It works well in branding systems that want a contemporary, active voice—such as sports, tech, events, and packaging—especially when used at medium to large sizes for maximum impact.
The overall tone is energetic and forward-moving, projecting a modern, sporty confidence. Its solid weight and steady slant feel assertive and contemporary, with a clean neutrality that avoids decorative personality in favor of impact and clarity.
The design intent appears focused on delivering a robust, contemporary italic voice for display use: a clean sans foundation pushed toward speed and urgency through a consistent oblique angle and simplified, rounded construction.
Lowercase forms appear single-storey where expected (a, g), reinforcing a simplified, geometric sensibility. Numerals are sturdy and highly legible at display sizes, with rounded figures and a simple, upright “1” that aligns with the no-nonsense rhythm of the set.
