A heavy, right-slanted sans with broad proportions and compact internal counters. Strokes are thick and mostly monolinear, with a clear oblique axis that gives letters a forward-leaning stance. Round forms (O, C, Q, 0) are built from smooth, squarish-leaning curves, while many joins and terminals show crisp, angled cuts that create a slightly “speed” feel. The lowercase is sturdy and simplified, with single-story a and g and a relatively upright, blocky rhythm despite the italic slant; figures are similarly robust and highly prominent.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings like headlines, posters, sports and team branding, packaging callouts, and social graphics where a strong forward motion is desirable. It can work for brief subheads or emphatic UI moments, but longer paragraphs may feel visually heavy due to the dense color and compact counters.
The overall tone is fast, forceful, and contemporary—more about impact than delicacy. The slant and sharp cutoffs suggest motion and urgency, while the thick, rounded construction keeps it friendly enough for bold, mainstream branding.
The design appears intended as a modern, high-impact italic sans that combines broad, rounded forms with angular terminals to convey speed and confidence. It prioritizes immediate visibility and a strong silhouette in display contexts.
At text sizes the weight and tight counters can make dense passages feel dark, but at display sizes the shapes read cleanly and deliver strong presence. The italicized geometry is consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals, helping headlines feel cohesive.
