A heavy, right-slanted sans with broad proportions and smooth, geometric construction. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, and terminals are clean and largely straight-cut, giving the forms a crisp, engineered feel. Counters are open and rounded, and curves are drawn with a circular logic that keeps letters like O, C, and G stable and even. The overall rhythm is brisk due to the forward slant and wide set, while spacing stays controlled enough for large-scale reading.
Best suited to headlines, campaign graphics, and branding where a strong, fast impression is desired. It performs well in sports and tech-adjacent design, product packaging, and punchy editorial callouts. In longer text it reads most comfortably at larger sizes where the dense weight and slant can breathe.
The tone is energetic and driven, with a contemporary, performance-oriented voice. Its forward lean and sturdy weight read as confident and fast, suggesting motion and momentum without feeling decorative. The aesthetic leans modern and slightly technical, suitable for bold statements and attention-grabbing messaging.
The design appears intended as a contemporary, high-impact italic sans that combines geometric clarity with a sense of speed. It prioritizes bold legibility and brand presence, aiming for a clean, modern look that stays controlled while feeling dynamic.
Numerals match the letterforms with similarly broad, sturdy shapes; the 0 is clean and oval, and the 1 is a simple, angled form that reinforces the italic flow. Uppercase feels especially strong for display, while lowercase remains clear and compact, keeping the texture dense and impactful in paragraphs at larger sizes.
