A heavy, oblique sans with broad proportions and smooth, rounded construction. Strokes are largely monolinear, with clean terminals and generous curves in letters like C, O, and S, balanced by crisp diagonals in A, K, V, W, and Z. Counters are open and sturdy, and the lowercase shows a single-storey a and g with simple, continuous forms. Spacing reads even and stable, with a forward-leaning rhythm that keeps word shapes cohesive at larger sizes.
Best suited to display settings where a bold, forward-leaning voice is desirable—headlines, poster typography, branding marks, and energetic marketing. It can also work for short navigational UI labels or packaging callouts where clarity and impact matter more than long-form reading comfort.
The overall tone is assertive and fast, conveying a contemporary, performance-oriented feel. Its slant and strong weight suggest motion and impact, while the rounded geometry keeps it approachable rather than aggressive.
The design appears intended to deliver high-impact communication with a sense of speed and modernity, combining geometric roundness with a strong oblique stance. It prioritizes bold presence and clear silhouettes for quick recognition in prominent placements.
The numerals appear robust and highly legible, matching the same rounded/diagonal logic as the letters. The sample text shows strong color on the page, making the face feel dense and attention-grabbing in headlines, with a consistent italic angle across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
