A heavy, oblique sans with broad proportions and low-contrast strokes. Forms lean consistently to the right with smooth, rounded curves and generally open counters, giving letters a sturdy, geometric footprint. Stroke terminals are clean and straightforward, and the overall rhythm is even and solid, with minimal stroke modulation and a slightly squared-off practicality in places like the diagonals and joins. Figures match the alphabet’s weight and presence, reading as compact, punchy numerals with clear silhouettes.
Best suited to branding and display applications where a bold, energetic voice is needed—headlines, posters, packaging, and attention-grabbing signage. It can also work for short UI labels or marketing callouts when you want strong emphasis, though the pronounced slant and width make it more at home in titles than in long-form reading.
The tone is energetic and forward-moving, with a sporty, contemporary feel driven by the slant and bold color on the page. Rounded geometry keeps it approachable, while the heft and width add confidence and impact, making it feel assertive without becoming aggressive.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-impact oblique sans that feels sporty and approachable, combining geometric roundness with substantial weight for clear visibility and strong brand presence.
In text, the strong slant and wide set create a pronounced horizontal momentum; this can add emphasis and branding character, especially at larger sizes. The lettershapes stay clean and consistent across upper- and lowercase, prioritizing bold, legible silhouettes over delicate detail.
