A slanted sans with rounded, near-geometric construction and smooth, continuous curves. Strokes are heavy and largely uniform, with broad, oval counters and softened joins that keep forms cohesive at display sizes. Terminals are clean and slightly sheared by the oblique angle, giving letters a streamlined, forward-leaning silhouette. The set mixes open apertures with compact internal spaces, and the numerals follow the same curvy, italic rhythm for consistent texture.
Best suited for short, high-impact typography such as headlines, posters, athletic or performance branding, packaging callouts, and promotional graphics where the slant and weight can carry the message. It can work in brief UI accents or labels, but the dense stroke and tightened counters suggest avoiding very small text sizes.
The overall tone is energetic and modern, with a forward motion that reads as sporty and assertive rather than formal. Rounded shapes and generous curves keep it approachable, while the strong weight and slant add urgency and emphasis.
Designed to deliver emphasis with a sleek, rounded sans voice—pairing a strong presence with a fast, forward-leaning stance. The consistent curves and simplified terminals suggest an intention toward clarity and punch in display-focused settings.
Round letters like O/C/G and the bowls in B/P/R lean toward elliptical shapes, helping lines of text form a smooth, rolling rhythm. The oblique angle is pronounced enough to create motion in headlines, and the heavy strokes can cause small counters to tighten in dense settings.
