A slanted sans with smooth, rounded geometry and a sturdy, even stroke presence. Forms lean consistently with controlled curves and mostly closed apertures, producing compact counters and a strong silhouette. Round letters like O and C are clean and elliptical, while straight-sided shapes (E, F, H, N) keep crisp terminals without decorative detailing. The lowercase is compact and rhythmic, with a single-storey a and g, short extenders, and generally tight interior spaces that emphasize solidity over airiness.
Best suited to branding, headlines, posters, and packaging where a strong italic voice adds motion and emphasis. It also fits sports and tech-adjacent graphics, editorial callouts, and short UI labels where a compact, energetic sans is desired.
The overall tone is fast and assertive, with an athletic, forward-moving character created by the consistent italic angle and strong shapes. It reads as contemporary and purposeful rather than formal, projecting momentum and confidence in headlines and short messages.
The design appears intended as a forceful italic sans that delivers speed and impact while staying clean and broadly legible. Its rounded construction and consistent slant suggest an emphasis on contemporary versatility for display applications rather than typographic ornament or high-contrast refinement.
Numerals follow the same slanted, rounded logic and appear designed for visual consistency alongside the letters rather than strict tabular uniformity. The sample text shows a dark color and tight internal spacing that can become dense in long paragraphs, reinforcing its role as a display-oriented italic rather than a delicate text face.
