A heavy, rounded sans with compact proportions and broad, flat terminals. Curves are built from squarish, superellipse-like bowls, giving letters a sturdy, molded look rather than a geometric circle-based feel. Stroke thickness stays consistent across the alphabet, with crisp joins and minimal modulation. Counters are relatively tight (notably in B, P, R, 8, 9), and the overall rhythm is dense and solid, with slightly narrower sidebearings that keep words feeling tightly set.
Best suited to headlines and short bursts of text where strong presence and quick recognition matter. It works well for brand marks, packaging, signage, and promotional graphics that benefit from a sturdy, friendly impact. In longer paragraphs, the dense weight and tight counters will typically be most comfortable at larger sizes with generous spacing.
The tone is bold and approachable, combining toughness with softened corners. It reads as energetic and contemporary—more playful than corporate—while still feeling controlled and utilitarian. The rounded-rectangle construction suggests a friendly, sport-forward voice that’s designed to stand out quickly.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a softened, contemporary feel—pairing strong, compact letterforms with rounded geometry to keep the voice approachable. Its consistent stroke weight and squarish curves suggest a focus on bold display clarity and a cohesive, modern texture.
Uppercase forms are especially block-forward, with wide horizontal strokes in E/F/T and a firm, squared-off presence in H/M/N. The G has a clean, open interior with a decisive spur, and the Q’s tail is short and functional. Numerals follow the same squarish rounding, with a particularly sturdy 0 and compact 6/9 forms that maintain strong black density.
