A heavy, right-slanted sans with smooth, rounded curves and mostly uniform stroke weight. Proportions feel compact but tall, with lowercase forms that sit high in the x-height and have tight apertures, giving a dense, efficient texture in text. Terminals are clean and blunt, with simplified, contemporary constructions and a generally streamlined rhythm across capitals, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to headlines, short bursts of copy, and branding where a fast, assertive voice is needed. It performs well on posters, packaging, and sports or tech-adjacent identities, and can work for subheads or pull quotes when set with generous spacing to avoid crowding at smaller sizes.
The overall tone is energetic and forward-moving, with a sporty, action-oriented feel driven by the pronounced slant and dense, dark color. It reads as confident and contemporary, leaning more toward impact and momentum than delicacy or formality.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, performance-driven italic sans that combines strong weight with smooth, rounded geometry for clear impact in display contexts.
The strong diagonal emphasis is consistent across the set, and the rounded bowls (notably in letters like o, e, and g) help soften the weight while keeping a solid, assertive presence. Numerals match the same bold, compact logic, supporting cohesive display setting.
