A heavy, rounded sans with a consistent rightward slant and thick, low-modulation strokes. Forms are built from broad curves and softened joins, with circular bowls and compact inner counters that emphasize mass and solidity. Terminals are clean and generally squared-off but visually softened by the overall round construction, giving the face a smooth, inflated silhouette. Proportions feel generously wide, with sturdy verticals and diagonals that read clearly at display sizes, while the numerals match the same bold, rounded rhythm.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as headlines, posters, brand marks, and packaging where bold presence and a lively slant help attract attention. It can also work for sports or entertainment graphics, badges, and social media titles, especially when readability is prioritized at larger sizes.
The overall tone is energetic and approachable, combining a sporty forward-lean with a friendly, cartoon-like softness. It conveys confidence and impact without feeling sharp or aggressive, leaning toward retro sign and headline personality.
Designed to deliver maximum visual impact through weight and width while maintaining a friendly, rounded character. The consistent slant suggests an intention to add speed and dynamism for display-driven branding and promotional typography.
Spacing and shapes create a strong, blocky texture with minimal white space inside letters, making it most comfortable when set with ample breathing room. The italic angle is pronounced enough to add motion, and rounded geometry keeps the texture cohesive across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
