A heavy, oblique sans with broad proportions and low stroke modulation. Letterforms lean consistently to the right and use smooth, geometric curves paired with straight-sided joins, producing a crisp, contemporary rhythm. Counters are generally open and rounded, terminals are clean and unadorned, and the overall color is dense and even across text. The lowercase shows sturdy bowls and straightforward construction, with a single-storey "a" and simple, functional shapes throughout.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and campaign-style typography where impact and momentum matter. It also fits branding, packaging, and sports or fitness communications that benefit from a bold, slanted voice. For extended reading, it is likely most effective when used sparingly as a display style rather than as body text.
The slanted stance and solid weight give the face a forward-moving, athletic tone. It reads confident and promotional, with a punchy presence that feels contemporary and action-oriented rather than delicate or editorial.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, modern display sans with a built-in sense of speed. Its geometric, rounded construction and consistent slant aim for high visibility and a confident, contemporary tone in promotional settings.
The figures are bold and highly noticeable, matching the strong typographic color of the letters. At larger sizes the italic angle and wide set create a strong headline cadence, while in longer lines the dense weight can feel emphatic and attention-grabbing.
