A compact, oblique sans with thick, even stroke weight and tightly set proportions. Curves are built from rounded, superellipse-like forms, giving bowls and counters a smooth, controlled geometry rather than a purely circular feel. Terminals are clean and mostly squared-off with softened corners, and the overall rhythm is steady and forceful, with short extenders and a sturdy, blocky silhouette. Figures and capitals read as dense and upright-in-structure despite the slant, reinforcing a compressed, high-density texture in words and lines.
Best suited to headlines, poster typography, bold branding, and packaging where a condensed, slanted voice needs to grab attention quickly. It also fits sports and active-lifestyle graphics, promo materials, and short UI callouts where strong emphasis is desired at medium-to-large sizes.
The slanted stance and heavy presence create a fast, assertive tone with a distinctly contemporary, performance-oriented feel. It suggests motion and emphasis—more “headline push” than conversational text—while the rounded geometry keeps it from feeling harsh or mechanical.
Designed to deliver maximum impact in limited horizontal space, combining a forward-leaning stance with rounded, controlled geometry for a modern display voice. The goal appears to be strong emphasis and momentum while maintaining clean, consistent forms across letters and figures.
Round letters like O/Q and bowls in B/P/R show generous interior space for the weight, helping legibility at display sizes. Diagonals (A/V/W/X/Y) and the strong oblique angle amplify a forward-leaning, energetic cadence across uppercase and lowercase. Numerals appear sturdy and prominent, matching the letterforms’ compact width and heavy color.
