A heavy, rounded sans with a pronounced forward slant and broad, sturdy proportions. Strokes are consistently thick with smooth curves and soft corners, creating compact apertures and tight internal counters in letters like a, e, and s. Many terminals are cut on diagonals, and several forms lean toward simplified, geometric construction (notably the circular o/0 and the straight, angled joins in v/w/x). The overall rhythm is dense and impactful, optimized for large-scale clarity rather than airy readability.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and bold branding where strong presence and quick recognition matter. It works well for sports and event graphics, packaging, and promotional layouts that benefit from an energetic, forward-moving italic voice. For long passages at small sizes, the dense counters and heavy color are more likely to feel tight than comfortable.
The tone is energetic and upbeat, with a sporty, poster-like punch. Its rounded geometry and thick silhouettes feel approachable and contemporary, while the italic slant adds motion and urgency suitable for attention-grabbing messaging.
Designed to deliver maximum impact with a friendly, rounded voice—combining hefty weight, geometric simplicity, and an italic slant to convey motion and confidence in display typography.
Uppercase and lowercase share a unified, muscular color on the page, with a notably tall lowercase presence that keeps mixed-case text feeling strong and headline-forward. Numerals are similarly robust and rounded, matching the letterforms for consistent, display-oriented texture.
