A compact, oblique sans with firm geometry and rounded counters. Strokes are thick and steady, with smooth curves and clean terminals that stay largely unadorned. The letters lean consistently forward, and the overall rhythm feels tight and efficient, with relatively closed apertures and sturdy, simplified forms. Numerals match the letters in weight and slant, reading as strong, straightforward figures rather than delicate text numerals.
Best suited to display settings where impact and momentum matter—headlines, posters, campaign graphics, and bold brand moments. It can also work for labels and packaging where a compact, energetic italic voice helps content stand out, especially in short phrases and callouts.
The forward slant and heavy, controlled shapes give the font a fast, energetic tone. It feels purposeful and modern, with a slightly sporty edge that suggests motion and emphasis rather than quiet neutrality.
Designed to deliver a strong italic voice that reads as modern and energetic while keeping forms simple and clean. The emphasis appears to be on confident visibility, compact efficiency, and a cohesive, forward-moving texture across letters and numerals.
Uppercase forms read broad and stable while maintaining a noticeable oblique angle, and the lowercase shows a compact, punchy silhouette with solid joins and minimal modulation. The heavy weight and tight internal spaces make it most comfortable at sizes where counters can stay open and clear.
