A heavy, forward-slanted sans with smooth, rounded curves and largely uniform stroke thickness. Letterforms feel compact and dense, with generous counters in round letters (O, Q, 8) and crisp, slightly angled terminals that reinforce the italic motion. Curves are clean and circular-leaning, while straight strokes stay firm and direct, creating a strong, even rhythm across capitals, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited for headlines, short statements, and brand marks where strong presence and motion are desirable. It also works well for packaging and promotional graphics, especially when a modern, energetic voice is needed. For longer text, it will read most comfortably at larger sizes due to its dense, heavy color.
The overall tone is energetic and assertive without becoming aggressive. Its rounded geometry keeps it approachable, while the consistent slant and weight give it a fast, contemporary feel suited to attention-grabbing messaging.
The design appears intended to combine geometric clarity with a sense of speed and emphasis through a consistent italic slant and rounded construction. It aims to deliver high-impact typography that remains clean and friendly, balancing assertiveness with approachable forms.
The lowercase shows single-storey construction where expected (notably a and g), supporting a simplified, contemporary texture. Numerals are sturdy and highly legible, with forms that remain open and clear at display sizes, and the italic angle is consistent across the set for a unified flow in running text.
