A heavy, right-slanted sans with compact proportions and rounded, geometric curves. Strokes are consistently thick with smooth joins and minimal modulation, giving the letters a solid, unified color. Counters are relatively tight in round forms, while apertures remain clear enough for display use. Terminals are clean and mostly blunt, and the overall rhythm feels forward-leaning and built for impact. Numerals match the letterforms with sturdy, simplified shapes and clear differentiation.
Best suited to large sizes where its weight and slant can deliver strong emphasis—headlines, posters, and brand marks benefit most. It also works well for sports- or performance-themed identities, punchy packaging callouts, and bold editorial leads where a dynamic, modern sans is desired.
The font reads as fast and forceful, with a contemporary, athletic tone. Its pronounced slant and dense weight convey momentum and confidence, making it feel promotional and headline-driven rather than quiet or literary.
The design appears intended to provide a high-impact italic sans for display settings, prioritizing momentum, solidity, and a clean geometric construction. It aims to be immediately attention-grabbing while staying restrained in detailing for broad, contemporary applicability.
The combination of tight internal spaces and strong slant increases urgency and presence, especially in short lines. Round letters (like O/C/G) keep a smooth, engineered feel, while straight-sided forms (like E/F/T) reinforce a structured, no-nonsense voice.
