A compact, heavy sans with a consistent monoline feel and softly squared, superellipse-like curves. The italic slant is noticeable and steady across the set, with rounded terminals and corners that keep the texture smooth despite the dense weight. Counters are relatively tight (notably in O, P, R, and the numerals), and many forms lean toward squared bowls rather than perfect circles, creating a sturdy, engineered rhythm. Lowercase has tall ascenders and simple, sturdy constructions, while the uppercase reads clean and blocky with minimal modulation.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings where a strong, compact italic can add momentum—headlines, posters, campaign graphics, and brand marks. It can also work well in packaging and sports or lifestyle applications where a dense, rounded-technical texture helps text feel bold and contemporary.
The font projects a sporty, forward-leaning tone—confident and pragmatic rather than delicate. Its softened geometry adds approachability, while the strong weight and slant convey motion and impact, lending a contemporary, performance-minded character.
The design appears intended to deliver a powerful italic voice built from softened geometric shapes—prioritizing impact, coherence, and a smooth, modern texture. The rounded-rectangle construction and compact proportions suggest a focus on strong readability at large sizes and a distinctive, energetic silhouette.
Round forms like C, G, O, and Q appear based on rounded-rectangle geometry, and the angled strokes in A, V, W, and Y emphasize the dynamic slant. Numerals are sturdy and compact, matching the letterforms’ dense color and rounded-corner construction.
