A heavy, oblique sans with broad proportions and smooth, rounded geometry. Strokes are uniformly thick with minimal modulation, and curves resolve into clean, circular counters and soft terminals. The italic slant is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, giving the set a forward-leaning rhythm. Letterforms feel sturdy and compact in their joins (notably in n/m/h), with open apertures and simple construction that keeps silhouettes bold and readable at display sizes.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and short emphatic copy where the weight and slant can do the work of grabbing attention. It also fits branding systems that want a modern, athletic edge—such as apparel, fitness, events, and product packaging—especially when set large or used for punchy taglines.
The overall tone is energetic and assertive, with a contemporary, sporty feel. Its weight and slant communicate motion and emphasis, while the rounded shaping keeps it approachable rather than severe. The voice reads as confident, promotional, and attention-grabbing.
The design appears intended to deliver high-impact emphasis with a streamlined, geometric sans structure, using a consistent oblique angle and rounded forms to balance power with approachability. It aims for quick recognition and strong word shapes in display typography.
Capitals are tall and blocky with generous interior space (e.g., O/Q), and diagonals in A/V/W/X are thick and stable. The lowercase shows a single-storey a and g with rounded bowls, plus a prominent, straightforward dot on i/j. Numerals are equally stout and simplified, with an oval 0 and a bold, angular 1; overall spacing appears tuned for impactful headlines rather than delicate text setting.
