A slanted, heavy sans with rounded terminals and smooth, continuous curves throughout. Strokes are sturdy and fairly even in color, with subtle contrast and a consistent, slightly condensed rhythm that keeps counters open at display sizes. Curved letters (C, O, S) feel circular and controlled, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) are strong and crisp. The lowercase shows single-storey forms (notably a and g) and a compact, utilitarian construction, and the figures are simple, sturdy, and legible with similarly rounded corners and a forward-leaning stance.
This font is well suited for headlines, subheads, posters, and brand marks where a strong, fast, modern voice is needed. It can also work well on packaging and promotional graphics, especially where compact, high-impact typography is desirable.
The overall tone is energetic and forceful, with a forward motion that reads as athletic and contemporary. Its weight and slant give it a confident, action-oriented feel suited to attention-grabbing messaging rather than quiet text settings.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, contemporary sans voice with built-in motion from the slant, balancing strong presence with rounded, approachable finishing. It prioritizes high-impact display readability and a cohesive, energetic texture across letters and figures.
The shapes maintain a consistent, slightly narrow footprint, which helps create dense, punchy word images in headings. The italic angle is pronounced enough to communicate speed, while the rounded terminals keep it friendly and approachable instead of aggressive.
