A slanted sans with thick, low-contrast strokes and smooth, rounded curves. The letterforms lean consistently to the right, with a compact, sturdy build and generous counters that keep shapes open at display sizes. Terminals are clean and largely unadorned, and curves (notably in C, G, O, Q, and S) read as controlled and geometric rather than calligraphic. The overall rhythm is steady and punchy, with slightly lively width variation between characters and numerals that match the same robust, rounded construction.
Best suited for headlines and short-form text where its weight and slant can create momentum—such as posters, sports or fitness branding, packaging, and promotional signage. It can also work for UI accents or callouts where emphasis and quick scanning are priorities.
The font communicates speed and confidence, pairing a forward-leaning stance with heavy, simplified forms. Its tone feels contemporary and energetic—well suited to messaging that should read as active, direct, and high-impact without becoming ornate.
Likely designed to deliver a bold, forward-moving voice in a clean sans framework, prioritizing immediate readability and strong presence. The geometry and open counters suggest an emphasis on clarity at larger sizes while maintaining a contemporary, energetic personality.
Lowercase forms are straightforward and utilitarian, with a single-storey a and g contributing to a modern, simplified feel. Numerals are sturdy and highly legible, designed to hold up in large, attention-grabbing settings.
