A compact, heavy sans with a consistent oblique slant and low-contrast strokes. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle geometry, producing smooth, soft corners and slightly squared counters in letters like O, D, and P. Terminals are clean and mostly flat, with a steady, mechanical rhythm that stays even across caps, lowercase, and numerals. The lowercase shows sturdy, simplified forms (single-storey a and g) and the figures are broad and stable, with open shapes and clear internal space.
Well-suited to punchy headlines, promotional typography, and branding systems that need a confident, contemporary voice. It can work effectively on packaging and in sports or event graphics where bold, slanted letterforms help convey motion and emphasis. Best used at medium to large sizes where its rounded geometry and compact spacing read crisply.
The overall tone is upbeat and contemporary, with a sporty, forward-moving feel created by the slant and sturdy weight. Rounded construction keeps it approachable rather than aggressive, while the compact proportions read as efficient and assertive.
Likely designed to deliver a modern, high-impact italic sans that feels fast and friendly at the same time. The rounded-rectangle construction suggests an intention to balance technical cleanliness with warmth, creating a distinctive display voice that remains legible and consistent across letters and numbers.
The design favors clear silhouettes and uniform massing over calligraphic detail, helping it hold together in short lines and at display sizes. The superellipse-like bowls and counters give it a distinctive, slightly technical flavor without becoming rigid.
