A heavy, oblique sans with rounded, geometric construction and smooth, low-contrast strokes. Curves are full and clean, while terminals are mostly blunt with subtle rounding that keeps the texture even at large sizes. The slant is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, producing a forward-leaning rhythm; counters remain open and legible despite the dense stroke weight. Overall spacing feels compact and display-oriented, with sturdy shapes and a stable baseline presence.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and brand marks where impact and motion are desirable. It also works well on packaging and promotional graphics, and can support short blocks of text or UI labels when set with comfortable tracking and line spacing.
The font reads energetic and assertive, with a sporty, contemporary tone. Its forward slant and solid forms suggest momentum and confidence, while the rounded geometry keeps it approachable rather than aggressive.
The design appears intended as a high-impact italic companion or standalone display style that communicates speed and modernity while maintaining clean, geometric legibility. Its construction prioritizes strong silhouettes and consistent rhythm for attention-grabbing typography.
Uppercase forms are broad and simplified, and the lowercase shows a single-story ‘a’ and ‘g’, reinforcing a modern, geometric voice. Numerals are similarly robust and clear, with strong silhouettes suited to quick recognition in headings and short UI or graphic callouts.
