A slanted sans with smooth, monoline strokes and rounded curves throughout. The letterforms lean consistently, with generous widths and open internal spaces that keep counters clear. Curves are broadly circular/elliptical, while joins and terminals are clean and largely unadorned, producing a crisp, contemporary rhythm. Numerals follow the same simple, rounded construction and sit evenly with the text, emphasizing clarity over ornament.
Well suited to display roles where a bold, energetic voice is needed—headlines, campaign graphics, posters, and brand wordmarks. The open apertures and straightforward shapes also make it viable for short UI labels or signage when set with comfortable tracking and line spacing.
The overall tone is energetic and forward-moving, with a sporty, contemporary feel driven by the consistent slant and sturdy stroke weight. It reads as confident and practical rather than delicate, balancing friendliness from the rounded forms with a no-nonsense, modern presence.
Likely designed to deliver a modern, energetic sans voice with strong readability and a streamlined, geometric construction. The consistent oblique stance and rounded geometry suggest an emphasis on motion and contemporary branding versatility rather than typographic flourish.
In text settings the strong slant creates a pronounced directional flow, making spacing and word shapes feel fast and cohesive. Round characters (like O/Q/0) appear especially smooth and stable, helping maintain uniform color across mixed-case and numerals.
