A heavy, right-slanted sans with a distinctly sheared construction and soft, rounded terminals. The strokes stay largely uniform, with subtle curvature where joins and corners would otherwise feel rigid, giving the letterforms a smooth, engineered look. Capitals are compact and forward-leaning, while lowercase maintains a steady rhythm with simple, single-storey forms and sturdy verticals. Figures are similarly chunky and legible, matching the overall blocky, streamlined silhouette.
Best suited to headlines, posters, short taglines, and branding where a sense of speed and impact is desired. It can work well on packaging and signage, and for logo wordmarks that need a forward-leaning, energetic voice. In longer text, it’s likely most effective in brief callouts or UI accents rather than continuous reading.
The overall tone is fast and assertive, evoking motion through its consistent slant and taut spacing. It reads as sporty and promotional, with a slightly nostalgic, late-20th-century display energy. The rounded edges keep it friendly enough for consumer branding while still feeling punchy and headline-driven.
The letterforms appear designed to deliver immediate visual momentum and strong presence, using a consistent oblique stance and softened corners to balance aggression with approachability. Its sturdy, uniform strokes and simplified shapes suggest a focus on high-impact display settings and straightforward reproduction across sizes.
The design relies on diagonal cuts and angled joins to create momentum, especially noticeable in letters like A, K, N, and V/W where the slant amplifies the geometry. Counters are generally open and uncomplicated, helping the weight stay readable in short bursts. The spacing feels tuned for impactful words rather than long, dense paragraphs.
