A heavy, forward-leaning sans with rounded geometry and smooth, continuous curves. Strokes are largely uniform with minimal modulation, producing dense, sturdy letterforms and a strong horizontal rhythm. Counters are open and broadly oval, terminals are clean and unadorned, and joins remain crisp without sharp, calligraphic flare. The proportions feel generously set, with compact interior spaces balanced by broad outer silhouettes for clear impact at display sizes.
Best suited to attention-forward applications such as headlines, posters, and brand marks where a strong, energetic voice is needed. It can also work for packaging and promotional materials, especially when paired with simpler supporting text to keep layouts from feeling overly dense.
The overall tone is fast, assertive, and contemporary, with an athletic slant that suggests motion and momentum. Its weight and simplified construction communicate confidence and directness, reading as practical rather than delicate or expressive.
Designed to deliver a bold, motion-driven sans voice with high immediacy and legibility through simplified shapes and consistent stroke weight. The oblique stance appears intended to add speed and emphasis while keeping forms clean and broadly applicable for modern display typography.
Figures follow the same sturdy, rounded construction as the letters and maintain a consistent forward inclination. The italic angle is steady across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, supporting cohesive emphasis in running text and headlines.
