A heavy, oblique sans with rounded geometry and smooth, continuous curves. Strokes are monolinear with blunt, slightly angled terminals and generous corner rounding that keeps counters open even at the bold weight. Proportions lean horizontally with broad capitals and a steady, forward slant; the rhythm is even and compact, with tightly controlled apertures and sturdy joins that read cleanly in both uppercase and lowercase.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and brand marks where a bold, slanted sans can convey speed and impact. It also fits sports and lifestyle graphics, packaging callouts, and promotional materials that need strong presence without intricate detailing. Use at medium-to-large sizes to take advantage of its dense strokes and rounded shapes.
The overall tone is energetic and assertive, with a forward-leaning stance that suggests motion and momentum. Rounded forms soften the weight, giving it an approachable, contemporary feel rather than an aggressive one. It comes across as confident and utilitarian, well-suited to punchy, attention-getting typography.
This design appears intended as a modern, high-impact sans that combines a strong, forward-leaning silhouette with softened, rounded construction for approachable strength. The aim is clear, contemporary emphasis—built for quick recognition in branding and display typography.
Figures are robust and simple, with rounded bowls and stable verticals that maintain clarity at display sizes. Uppercase forms stay crisp and athletic, while the lowercase retains a straightforward, workmanlike structure that supports continuous reading in short bursts.
