A condensed, right-leaning sans with monoline strokes and heavily rounded terminals. Curves are built from squarish, superellipse-like forms, giving bowls and counters a compact, rounded-rectangle feel. The overall rhythm is tight and vertical, with tall ascenders/uppercase proportions and a comparatively small x-height. Joins and apertures stay smooth and simplified, producing a sturdy silhouette that remains clean even at smaller sizes.
Best suited to short, prominent text such as headlines, posters, badges, and brand marks where a compact, high-impact voice is needed. It also fits packaging and apparel-style graphics that benefit from a retro athletic slant, and works well for punchy labels or navigation where space is tight.
The face conveys a sporty, retro-forward tone—fast, upbeat, and approachable. Its softened corners keep it friendly, while the strong, compressed stance reads assertive and energetic.
The design appears intended to combine speed and compactness with a softened, modernized geometry. By pairing a forward slant and condensed proportions with rounded-rectangle curves, it aims to feel both dynamic and friendly while maintaining a consistent, graphic texture.
Capitals are narrow and uniform in presence, while lowercase keeps a simple, workmanlike structure with minimal detailing. Numerals follow the same condensed, rounded construction, aligning visually with the letters for consistent texture in mixed alphanumeric settings.
