A heavy, oblique sans with crisp, largely uniform stroke weight and smoothly rounded curves. Letterforms are compact and muscular, with open counters and simplified geometry that reads clearly at display sizes. Terminals are clean and mostly straight-cut, while bowls and rounds stay soft and circular, creating a controlled, contemporary rhythm. The lowercase shows a single-storey a and g, a round i dot, and a simple, compact ear on r; numerals are sturdy and straightforward, with a slashed-style diagonal feel in shapes like 2 and 7 driven by the overall slant.
Best suited to headlines, logos, and short promotional copy where a strong, kinetic presence is desirable. It can work well for sports, automotive, and tech-adjacent branding, as well as packaging and social graphics that benefit from bold, italicized emphasis.
The overall tone is energetic and forward-leaning, suggesting motion and urgency without becoming chaotic. Its solid color and clean geometry give it a modern, utilitarian confidence that fits contemporary branding and interface-adjacent aesthetics.
The design appears aimed at delivering a contemporary, high-impact oblique sans that communicates speed and confidence while maintaining clean, geometric legibility. It prioritizes strong silhouette and consistent curvature for bold display use.
The pronounced slant and dense weight create strong horizontal momentum, making it especially effective in short strings where the oblique angle reads as intentional emphasis. Round forms (C, O, S, 8) stay smooth and consistent, supporting a cohesive, geometric voice across caps, lowercase, and figures.
