A heavy, oblique sans with rounded, geometric construction and smooth, low-contrast strokes. Curves are full and clean, with softened corners and generous bowls that keep counters open at display sizes. The italic slant is consistent across caps and lowercase, giving the design a forward-leaning rhythm, while widths vary slightly by glyph for a natural, non-monospaced texture. Numerals are robust and simplified, matching the broad, even stroke weight of the alphabet.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and brand marks where a bold, forward-leaning voice is needed. It also fits sports and lifestyle graphics, packaging callouts, and short UI/marketing phrases where strong emphasis and quick recognition matter more than long-form reading.
The overall tone feels energetic and contemporary, with a sporty, assertive presence driven by the strong weight and forward slant. Rounded forms temper the impact, keeping it approachable rather than severe, which reads as confident and upbeat in headlines.
The font appears designed to deliver high-impact emphasis with a clean, modern silhouette, using an oblique stance and rounded geometry to communicate speed and confidence while staying friendly and legible at larger sizes.
Diagonal joins and terminals emphasize motion, and the broad shapes maintain clarity in large setting. The design’s even color and smooth curves make it feel cohesive across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, with a distinctly punchy italic personality.
