A heavy, right-slanted sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. The letterforms are broad and compact, with thick, uniform strokes and minimal internal counters, giving the set a dense, blocky texture. Curves (C, O, S, e, o) read as squarish superellipse shapes rather than perfect circles, while joins and terminals stay clean and blunt. The rhythm is energetic and forward-leaning, with consistent weight and simplified details that favor impact over delicacy.
Best suited to display settings where strong presence is needed: headlines, posters, sports and event branding, punchy packaging, and bold logo wordmarks. It can work for short bursts of text (taglines, callouts) where the compact counters and dense color remain comfortable at larger sizes.
The overall tone feels sporty and assertive, like signage or team branding, while the rounded geometry keeps it friendly rather than aggressive. Its strong slant and chunky forms add urgency and motion, lending a playful, headline-ready voice that reads as contemporary and attention-seeking.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact with a fast, forward-leaning stance and rounded, superelliptical shapes that keep the mood approachable. Its simplified, heavy construction prioritizes clear silhouettes and brandable texture for contemporary display typography.
The silhouette stays highly consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, with similar rounded-square logic applied to bowls and counters. Numerals are stout and bold, matching the letterforms’ compact feel and maintaining the same blunt, simplified finishing. Spacing appears designed to create a solid, poster-like mass in text, especially at larger sizes.
