A heavy, right-slanted sans with rounded, geometric construction and smooth, low-contrast curves. Strokes are thick and consistent, with softened corners and broad bowls that keep counters open at display sizes. The italics are strongly integrated into the shapes rather than being a simple oblique, producing a forward-leaning rhythm and energetic spacing. Proportions feel compact in the lowercase, with short ascenders/descenders and a comparatively small x-height, while caps remain wide and stable.
Best suited for headlines, branding, logos, posters, and packaging where a bold, energetic voice is needed. It also fits sports and tech-adjacent visual systems, social graphics, and short UI labels at larger sizes where the slanted rhythm can work as a stylistic signal.
The overall tone is fast, upbeat, and contemporary, with a sporty forward motion that reads as assertive without feeling harsh. Rounded terminals and generous curves add an approachable, friendly edge, balancing the weight and slant with a smooth, modern finish.
The design appears intended to deliver a high-impact, forward-moving sans that combines geometric simplicity with a softened, friendly surface. Its strong slant and heavy stroke weight suggest a focus on attention-grabbing display typography and brand expression over long-form reading.
Numerals share the same slanted stance and rounded geometry, giving the set a cohesive, brandable look. The forms maintain clarity through large apertures and simple joins, but the strong slant and dense weight make it feel most at home in short bursts rather than extended small text.
