A heavy, oblique sans with smooth, rounded curves and sturdy, even strokes. The letterforms lean forward with a consistent slant, giving the set a lively rhythm while keeping counters fairly open. Proportions feel compact in the lowercase, with short ascenders/descenders and tight apertures in forms like e, a, and s, while round glyphs (O, Q, 0, 8) read as clean ellipses. Terminals are mostly blunt and cleanly cut, and diagonals (V, W, X, Y, k) are strong and stable, producing a clear, graphic silhouette.
This font is well suited to headlines, branding, posters, and packaging where a bold, slanted sans can add immediacy and impact. It also works for short UI labels or signage that benefits from a strong, modern presence, especially at medium-to-large sizes where the compact lowercase and tight apertures remain clear.
The overall tone is energetic and assertive, with a forward-leaning posture that suggests motion and momentum. Its rounded geometry keeps it approachable rather than aggressive, making it feel modern, sporty, and promotional.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, motion-driven look using a consistent oblique angle, rounded geometry, and sturdy construction. It prioritizes punchy display performance and a cohesive, modern feel across letters and numerals.
The uppercase appears wide and sturdy for display, while the lowercase maintains a compact, efficient texture in longer lines. Numerals are simple and robust, matching the letters’ rounded geometry and maintaining high visual consistency across the set.
