A slanted sans with heavy, even strokes and rounded, smoothly transitioned curves. The letterforms lean consistently, with compact proportions and broad, open counters that keep shapes clear at display sizes. Terminals are clean and mostly blunt, and bowls (C, G, O, Q) read as near-circular with a steady rhythm across the alphabet. Numerals follow the same forward-leaning, solid construction, with simple, sturdy shapes and minimal detail.
Best suited to headlines, poster copy, and brand marks where a strong italic voice is needed. It can work for short-to-medium blocks such as taglines, packaging callouts, event graphics, and sports or tech-adjacent identities, especially where bold presence and quick readability matter.
The overall tone is fast and assertive, with a forward-leaning posture that suggests motion and urgency. Its rounded geometry softens the impact, balancing strength with approachability, making it feel contemporary and performance-oriented rather than formal.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-impact italic sans that communicates speed and emphasis while staying broadly legible. Its consistent stroke weight and rounded construction aim for reliable reproduction across print and screen in attention-focused contexts.
Uppercase forms are wide and stable, while lowercase shows friendly, single-storey-style simplicity in key shapes (notably the compact, rounded a/c/e). Spacing appears geared toward headline setting, producing a dense, impactful texture in continuous text without relying on sharp contrast or decorative features.
