A heavy, slanted sans with clean, uniform strokes and rounded, geometric bowls. Curves are smooth and generous, while terminals are mostly flat with a slight forward-cut feel that reinforces motion. Proportions read broadly set with sturdy verticals and clear counters; the lowercase is compact and sturdy, with single-storey forms and a tight, energetic rhythm. Numerals match the letterforms with rounded shapes and consistent weight, staying very solid at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and high-impact branding where a strong, slanted voice is desirable. It also fits sports and active-lifestyle graphics, packaging callouts, and short UI/marketing banners where clarity and punch matter more than long-form reading comfort.
The overall tone is energetic and forward-moving, with a bold, assertive presence that still feels approachable. Its slant and compact shapes suggest speed and momentum, giving it a contemporary, action-oriented voice rather than a formal or editorial one.
This design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-energy sans for display use, combining geometric roundness with a pronounced slant to emphasize movement and confidence. The consistent stroke weight and sturdy counters aim for immediate legibility while maintaining an expressive, sporty personality.
Round letters like C, G, O, and Q lean on near-circular construction, while diagonals (K, V, W, X, Y) are broad and strongly angled, adding a muscular texture across words. The sample text shows high impact and strong word shapes, with the slant creating a cohesive, continuous flow in longer lines.
