A compact, right-leaning italic with heavy strokes and smoothly rounded, superellipse-like curves. The overall build is narrow with tight internal counters, giving a dense, efficient texture in words. Terminals are clean and mostly blunt, while curves stay soft and inflated rather than sharp, creating a consistent, controlled rhythm across capitals, lowercase, and numerals. The lowercase maintains a conventional x-height and clear joins, and the figures are bold and sturdy with rounded bowls and strong vertical emphasis.
Works well for impactful headlines, posters, and promotional copy where a bold, energetic italic is desired. The compact width and rounded forms also suit sports-oriented branding, product packaging, and logo wordmarks that need a strong silhouette and quick recognition.
The tone is energetic and assertive, with a forward motion that reads as fast and purposeful. Its rounded geometry keeps the voice friendly and approachable, balancing the weight with a slightly retro, sporty attitude.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-impact italic built from rounded-rectangular geometry, combining speed cues with a solid, friendly mass. It aims to stay clean and graphic while remaining approachable through softened curves and consistent, compact proportions.
In longer text the dense spacing and thick strokes create a dark color, making it best when set with generous tracking or at display sizes. The italic slant is prominent and consistent, reinforcing a sense of speed and momentum without becoming overly calligraphic.
