A heavy, slanted sans with rounded geometry and smooth, continuous curves. Strokes are broadly even in thickness, with soft terminals and gently squared counters that keep forms sturdy at display sizes. The italic angle is pronounced and consistent across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, creating a forward-leaning rhythm. Curves like C, O, and S feel full and slightly compressed, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) are wide and stable, contributing to a strong, blocky silhouette overall.
Best suited to headlines and short-form typography where a strong, forward-leaning presence is desirable. It works well for sports and event branding, punchy advertising, packaging callouts, and digital graphics where bold italic emphasis is part of the visual voice. For longer text, it functions most effectively in brief bursts such as subheads, labels, or emphatic pull quotes.
The face reads as assertive and fast, with a contemporary, sporty tone. Its steep slant and dense weight give it a sense of motion and urgency, while the rounded construction keeps it friendly rather than harsh. Overall it projects confidence, impact, and momentum.
This design appears intended as an impact-oriented italic sans for modern display work, prioritizing speed, strength, and readability at large sizes. The rounded, geometric construction and consistent slant suggest a focus on cohesive branding and energetic messaging rather than delicate detail.
Lowercase forms appear compact with large bowls and short extenders, supporting a tight, efficient texture in headlines. Numerals are similarly sturdy and highly legible, with simplified shapes and ample internal space for the weight. Spacing in the sample text suggests it’s optimized for bold setting where tight joins and rounded corners prevent clogging.
