A slanted sans with sturdy, low-contrast strokes and clean, rounded terminals. Curves are broadly elliptical with generous apertures, while straighter strokes keep a steady, contemporary rhythm. Proportions are compact but not cramped, with a moderate x-height and clear differentiation between rounded and angular forms; diagonals (notably in K, V, W, X, Y) feel energetic and consistent. Numerals follow the same smooth, utilitarian construction, with simple shapes and even weight distribution suited to display sizes.
Well suited to headlines, promotional graphics, and brand marks where a fast, modern voice is desired. It can also work for packaging and signage that benefits from strong letter presence and clear shapes, especially when set in short to medium-length lines.
The overall tone is energetic and assertive without feeling harsh, combining a sporty forward-lean with approachable roundness. It reads as contemporary and functional, projecting momentum and confidence in headlines and short bursts of copy.
Likely designed to provide a contemporary italic sans that communicates motion and emphasis while remaining clean and highly legible. The rounded geometry and even stroke weight suggest an intent to balance impact with an approachable, everyday usability.
Uppercase forms are straightforward and geometric, while lowercase shapes maintain openness and legibility through simple bowls and smooth joins. The italic angle is prominent enough to create motion, yet controlled enough to keep word shapes stable in continuous text at larger sizes.
