A heavy, right-slanted sans with broad proportions and low-contrast strokes. Letterforms lean on rounded, geometric construction with clean terminals and minimal detailing, creating a smooth, continuous rhythm in text. The lowercase shows a relatively large x-height and sturdy bowls, while counters stay open enough for clarity at display sizes. Numerals and caps maintain the same forward-leaning stance and solid, even color across the line.
Best suited for high-impact applications such as headlines, posters, branding systems, and energetic marketing materials where a bold, slanted sans can add motion. It also works well for logos, apparel graphics, and packaging that benefit from a strong, modern typographic presence.
The overall tone feels assertive and kinetic, with a forward motion that reads as sporty and contemporary. Its thick, steady strokes and pronounced slant give it a punchy, headline-ready voice that suggests momentum and confidence rather than delicacy or formality.
The design appears intended to deliver a dynamic, contemporary sans voice with a consistent slant and sturdy, geometric forms, prioritizing visual impact and speed cues in display typography.
The oblique angle is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, helping the face look cohesive in longer phrases. Curves are smooth and generously rounded, while joins and diagonals feel engineered for impact, producing a strong, uniform texture in paragraphs set large.
