A compact, slanted sans with heavy, uniform strokes and squared-off curves that read as rounded-rectangle forms. The geometry favors flat terminals, tight internal counters, and slightly condensed proportions, producing a firm, engineered texture in lines of text. Curves in letters like C, G, O, and S feel more superelliptical than circular, while diagonals (A, K, V, W, X, Y) are crisp and forward-leaning, reinforcing the oblique stance. Figures are sturdy and blocky with consistent weight and minimal modulation, matching the overall rigid-yet-rounded construction.
It performs best in short, bold statements such as headlines, posters, logos, and campaign graphics where a fast, high-impact voice is desired. The sturdy numerals and compact forms also suit product branding, sports-oriented applications, and tech-forward UI accents where space and emphasis matter more than airy readability.
The font projects speed and confidence, with a purposeful, sporty energy that feels suited to performance-oriented branding. Its rounded-rectilinear shapes add a contemporary, industrial tone, balancing friendliness with a no-nonsense, high-impact presence.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-energy italic sans optimized for impact, using superellipse-like rounding to keep the tone contemporary and slightly approachable while maintaining a strong, technical structure.
At text sizes the dense color and tight apertures create a strong headline texture, while the oblique angle adds motion even in short words. The design’s squared curves and flat endings give it a distinctive, machined personality compared with more purely humanist italic sans styles.
