A slanted sans with sturdy, low-contrast strokes and broadly rounded bowls. The letterforms lean forward with a consistent italic angle, keeping terminals mostly clean and gently curved rather than sharply cut. Counters are open and simple, with circular/elliptical construction showing strongly in characters like C, O, and Q, while straight-sided forms (E, F, H, N) maintain a crisp, even rhythm. The overall texture is dense and graphic, with tight internal shaping in S and a compact, modern feel in the numerals.
Best suited for headlines, branding, and short-to-medium display copy where a strong, forward-leaning presence helps create momentum. It also works well in sports and lifestyle graphics, packaging callouts, and promotional typography where compact, high-impact letterforms are desirable.
The font reads as energetic and purposeful, like a fast, forward-moving voice. Its combination of rounded geometry and strong slant gives it a sporty, contemporary tone that feels confident and attention-seeking without becoming decorative.
Designed to deliver a modern sans voice with built-in motion, pairing geometric roundness with a pronounced slant for emphasis. The intent appears to be high visibility and a confident, contemporary attitude in display settings.
Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent geometric logic, and the italic posture is integral rather than an afterthought. The shapes prioritize clear silhouettes over calligraphic detailing, producing a solid, poster-friendly color in lines of text.
