A heavy, oblique sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. Strokes are thick and even, with smooth, monoline behavior and broad curves that read as superelliptical rather than purely circular. Counters are generous for the weight, and joins are clean and slightly squared-off, giving the letterforms a sturdy, engineered feel. The lowercase shows compact, sturdy shapes with simple terminals, while the uppercase maintains broad, stable proportions; figures are bold and clean with rounded interiors and strong silhouettes.
Best suited to short, bold copy where impact matters—headlines, posters, brand marks, and packaging callouts. It also fits athletic and tech-adjacent identities that benefit from a forward-leaning, dynamic feel, and it can work for emphasis in editorial layouts when used sparingly.
The overall tone is energetic and confident, with a sporty, high-impact presence. Its rounded geometry keeps it friendly and approachable despite the strong weight, lending a modern, slightly playful voice suited to attention-grabbing typography.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch while staying approachable through rounded, superelliptical forms. Its consistent slant and sturdy, monoline construction suggest a focus on bold display typography that remains legible and cohesive across mixed-case settings and numerals.
Diagonal stress from the oblique slant is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, producing a forward-leaning rhythm in text. Round dots on i/j and the soft, compressed curves help maintain clarity at large sizes while preserving a cohesive, chunky texture.
