A slanted sans with compact, rounded forms and smooth, continuous curves. Strokes stay even and solid throughout, with softly finished terminals and minimal modulation, giving letters a sturdy, graphic presence. Counters are open and fairly circular, and the overall rhythm is brisk due to the consistent forward lean and slightly condensed-feeling proportions. Figures follow the same friendly, rounded construction and read clearly at display sizes.
Works best where a bold, modern voice is needed—brand marks, short headlines, posters, and promotional graphics. It can also serve in UI or navigation contexts when a lively, forward-leaning emphasis is desired, especially at medium to large sizes.
The overall tone feels energetic and forward-moving, combining a sporty immediacy with a clean, contemporary finish. Its rounded geometry keeps it approachable rather than aggressive, making it feel confident and upbeat.
Likely intended as a contemporary italic sans for impactful display typography, pairing geometric roundness with a strong slant to communicate motion and confidence while remaining legible and friendly.
The italic angle is pronounced enough to create motion in running text while maintaining stable, simple shapes. Round letters (like O and C) stay smooth and spacious inside, while diagonals (like V, W, and A) feel crisp and graphic, helping short headlines pop.
