A heavy, oblique sans with smooth, rounded curves and firm, straight terminals. The letterforms lean consistently, creating strong forward motion while keeping counters open and shapes cleanly simplified. Curves are built from broad circular/elliptical geometry, with a compact, efficient feel in the bowls and apertures and a steady baseline rhythm across the set. Numerals match the same sturdy, streamlined construction and read clearly at display sizes.
Best suited for headlines, short blurbs, and prominent UI/brand moments where speed and emphasis are desired. It performs well in posters, promotional graphics, sports and event identities, packaging callouts, and punchy editorial display settings where the oblique stance can carry the composition.
The overall tone is fast, assertive, and contemporary—suggesting movement and impact rather than delicacy. Its slant and dense strokes give it a punchy, promotional voice that feels at home in high-energy branding and headline-driven layouts.
Likely designed to deliver a modern, high-impact oblique voice that reads quickly and projects motion. The goal appears to be a clean, geometric sans with assertive weight and a streamlined construction for attention-grabbing display typography.
The design favors simplified, no-nonsense forms with minimal detailing, emphasizing legibility through large internal spaces and strong silhouettes. The italics are true in posture (not merely a slight slant), which amplifies momentum in longer lines of text.
