A slanted sans with sturdy, even strokes and broadly rounded curves. Letterforms show a geometric underpinning with softened corners and generous apertures, producing clear interior spaces in counters. Terminals are clean and mostly blunt, while joins and curves stay smooth and consistent, giving the alphabet a cohesive, engineered rhythm. Proportions feel compact but not condensed, and the numerals follow the same rounded, utilitarian construction for a unified texture in running text.
Well-suited to headlines, poster typography, and branding that needs a modern, energetic presence. The open forms and sturdy strokes also make it a practical choice for short UI labels and signage where quick recognition matters. It can work for brief text blocks when a bold, active voice is desired, especially in marketing or sports-oriented contexts.
The overall tone is active and forward-leaning, with a confident, sporty emphasis. Rounded shapes keep it approachable, while the strong weight and steady rhythm communicate solidity and momentum rather than delicacy or formality.
Likely designed to deliver a contemporary, motion-forward sans voice that remains friendly and legible. The combination of a consistent slant, rounded geometry, and robust weight suggests an emphasis on impact and clarity for display-led applications.
Uppercase forms read assertively in short labels, and the lowercase maintains good differentiation through open shapes and clear silhouettes. The oblique angle is consistent across letters and figures, helping headlines feel dynamic without becoming overly stylized.
