A heavy, slanted sans with compact proportions and rounded-rectangle construction throughout. Strokes are thick and even, with broad curves on C, G, O, and Q that feel superelliptical rather than circular. Terminals tend to be blunt and slightly angled, reinforcing a forward-leaning rhythm. The lowercase shows sturdy, single-storey forms (notably a and g), a tight, powerful bowl-and-stem relationship in b/p/q/d, and a short-armed, pragmatic r; counters are moderate and stay open enough at display sizes. Numerals are similarly dense and geometric, with a simple, robust 1 and rounded 0/8 shapes that match the overall soft-rectilinear logic.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and brand marks where a forceful, fast-paced voice is desired. It also fits sports and active-lifestyle graphics, promotional copy, and packaging that benefits from compact, high-impact letterforms. For longer text, it will be most comfortable at larger sizes where counters and spacing can breathe.
The overall tone is energetic and assertive, with a streamlined, contemporary feel. The pronounced slant and compact massing suggest speed and momentum, while the rounded corners keep the voice friendly rather than harsh. It reads as bold and emphatic, suited to attention-grabbing messaging.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum impact with a modern, rounded-geometric flavor, combining a strong slant with dense, sturdy shapes for immediacy. Its consistent superelliptical construction suggests an intention toward a clean, engineered aesthetic that remains approachable.
The design maintains a consistent rounded-rectangle motif across curves and joins, creating a cohesive, engineered look. Diagonal letters (K, V, W, X, Y, Z) feel particularly strong and stable, and the italic angle is substantial enough to be a defining personality trait rather than a subtle oblique.
