A slanted, geometric sans with heavy, even strokes and smoothly rounded curves. The shapes lean consistently to the right with clean terminals and minimal modulation, creating a uniform, low-contrast texture. Counters are open and simple, with circular and elliptical construction especially apparent in letters like O, C, and G. The overall rhythm is compact and energetic, with sturdy verticals and streamlined diagonals that keep the alphabet cohesive in both uppercase and lowercase.
Best suited to headlines, branding, posters, and marketing layouts where a strong, slanted sans can add motion and emphasis. It also fits athletic or tech-adjacent identities, packaging, and short UI or display text where clarity and punch are more important than long-form reading comfort.
The tone is forward-leaning and energetic, reading as contemporary and performance-oriented. Its smooth geometry and assertive weight feel confident and efficient, lending a sporty, modern voice without becoming decorative or playful.
Likely designed to deliver a clean, modern italic voice with strong presence and a sense of speed. The consistent geometric construction and smooth curves suggest an emphasis on legibility at display sizes while projecting an energetic, contemporary character.
Uppercase forms stay clear and strong with broad curves and straightforward joins, while the lowercase maintains a similarly geometric approach for consistency. Numerals are solid and high-impact, matching the letterforms closely and holding up well in short, attention-grabbing settings.
