A heavy, oblique sans with broad proportions and rounded, geometric construction. Strokes are uniform and dense, with soft curves and subtly flattened terminals that keep counters open despite the weight. The italic slant is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, creating a forward-leaning rhythm; bowls and rounds read as smooth ellipses while diagonals (K, V, W, X, Y, Z) are firm and stable. Spacing looks built for impact—letters sit tightly as a cohesive block, with simplified forms and minimal internal detailing.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, retail signage, sports branding, and bold packaging. It can also work for large-scale UI banners or display callouts where a forceful, forward-leaning emphasis is needed, but the dense weight makes it less ideal for long-form text.
The overall tone is loud, fast, and assertive, leaning toward sporty and promotional styling. It feels contemporary and utilitarian rather than refined, projecting momentum and confidence. The combination of mass and slant gives it a “headline first” personality suited to attention-grabbing messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-energy display sans that reads quickly and forcefully. Its rounded geometry and consistent slant prioritize clarity at large sizes while maintaining a strong, branded texture.
Uppercase forms are particularly compact and emphatic, while the lowercase maintains readable, single-storey shapes with rounded bowls (a, g) and a sturdy, functional feel. Numerals are similarly bold and slanted, designed to hold their shape at large sizes without delicate features. The sample text shows strong color and continuity across mixed-case sentences, with the oblique angle doing much of the expressive work.
