A heavy, right-leaning sans with rounded, softly squared curves and sturdy, uniform strokes. Counters are fairly open and circular, with smooth joins and a compact overall fit that keeps words dense and impactful. The oblique slant is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and figures, and the shapes favor clean geometry over calligraphic modulation. Terminals are blunt and simplified, helping maintain a strong, uninterrupted rhythm in text.
Best suited to headlines, advertising, and branding where a dense, energetic sans can carry emphasis without extra ornament. It works well for sports and lifestyle identity, packaging callouts, event graphics, and social media titles where the forward slant and sturdy curves help text pop at medium to large sizes.
The overall tone is energetic and assertive, with a forward-leaning stance that suggests motion and momentum. Rounded forms keep it approachable rather than aggressive, giving it a friendly, contemporary voice that still reads as confident and attention-seeking.
The design appears intended as a contemporary, high-impact oblique sans that communicates speed and confidence while staying approachable through rounded geometry. It prioritizes strong silhouette and consistent rhythm for short text settings and bold typographic statements.
Capitals feel wide and stable with prominent bowls (B, P, R) and a round, full O/Q. Lowercase is built for clarity at display sizes, with simple, robust forms and minimal fuss in details like t and r. Numerals match the same compact, athletic presence, designed to hold their weight in headlines and short bursts of copy.
