A heavy, oblique sans with rounded-rectangle construction and consistently softened corners. Strokes are thick and largely monolinear, with broad curves and compact counters that give letters a sturdy, blocky silhouette. The italic slant is pronounced and uniform, with a forward-leaning rhythm that keeps curves smooth and terminals blunt. Uppercase forms feel wide and stable, while lowercase shapes are simple and open, prioritizing clear, bold masses over fine detail.
Best suited to display roles where impact and momentum are desirable: headlines, posters, logo wordmarks, and bold brand accents. It can also work well on packaging and apparel-style graphics where rounded, athletic letterforms feel at home. For extended reading, it’s most effective in short bursts—pull quotes, labels, and UI highlights—where its weight and slant won’t dominate the page.
The overall tone is upbeat and approachable, with a sporty, modern feel. Its rounded geometry and strong slant create a sense of motion and immediacy, reading as confident and informal rather than reserved or editorial.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-energy sans that combines strong visual weight with friendly rounded geometry. The consistent oblique angle and softened rectangular curves suggest a focus on dynamic display typography that stays legible and cohesive across letters and numerals.
Round letters like O/C/G show a squarish, superelliptical roundness rather than pure circles, reinforcing a contemporary, engineered look. Numerals match the letterforms’ heavy weight and rounded terminals, maintaining consistent color in mixed text. In longer settings the oblique angle and dense strokes create a strong typographic presence that benefits from generous spacing and larger sizes.
