A slanted sans with a clean, uniform stroke and a geometric backbone. Curves are broadly rounded and smooth, while joins and terminals often resolve into crisp, angled cuts that give letters a sharp, engineered finish. Proportions feel compact with relatively low lowercase height and sturdy, wide-set capitals; counters are open and circular, especially in O/0-like forms. The overall rhythm is consistent and energetic, with a forward lean and slightly squared-off details that keep the shapes punchy at display sizes.
Best suited for headlines, short phrases, and branding where a dynamic, modern voice is needed. It works well on packaging and promotional graphics, and can complement sports, fitness, or tech-adjacent identities that benefit from a sense of motion and confidence.
The forward slant and clipped terminals create a sense of speed and momentum, reading as contemporary and action-oriented rather than formal. Rounded bowls temper the edge, adding an approachable, upbeat tone that suits active, youth-leaning, or tech-forward branding.
The design appears intended to deliver a fast, contemporary sans aesthetic: clean geometry for clarity, a consistent slant for motion, and angular terminal cuts to add bite and distinction in display settings.
Numerals are bold and straightforward, with strong diagonals (notably 2, 4, 7) and round, stable forms in 0, 6, 8, and 9. Lowercase shows sturdy, simplified construction with prominent dots on i/j and compact forms that maintain clarity despite the italic angle.
