This typeface presents a strongly slanted, heavy sans construction with smooth, rounded curves and consistently thick strokes. Terminals are largely clean and sheared, reinforcing forward motion, while joins and counters stay open enough to keep dense letters readable. Proportions feel slightly compact with sturdy bowls and broad curves, and the overall rhythm is lively due to the pronounced slant and subtly varied letter widths.
Best suited for large-size typography where impact and motion are desirable, such as headlines, posters, and display copy. It can work well for sports or tech-forward branding, packaging callouts, and short editorial emphases where a strong, energetic voice is needed.
The tone is assertive and kinetic, reading as fast, contemporary, and performance-oriented. Its slanted stance and muscular weight convey momentum and confidence, making it feel at home in energetic, attention-grabbing settings.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, forward-leaning display sans that communicates speed and modernity while retaining straightforward, clean letterforms for clear recognition at headline sizes.
Uppercase forms lean toward geometric simplicity with rounded shapes and firm diagonals, and the numerals match the same forward-leaning, punchy stance. The lowercase shows a single-storey “a” and “g” and maintains a consistent, streamlined silhouette across the set.
