A heavy, oblique sans with broad proportions and a rounded, geometric construction. Strokes are thick and largely monolinear, with smooth curves and sturdy joins that keep counters open even at display sizes. The overall rhythm is forward-leaning and energetic, with generous widths, soft terminals, and clean, simplified shapes that prioritize clarity over detail. Numerals match the letterforms in weight and roundness, maintaining a consistent, solid texture across mixed text.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and brand moments that need immediate impact and motion. It works well for packaging and promotional graphics where bold, forward-leaning typography can carry a message at a glance, and it holds up nicely in short subheads or callouts where a strong, rounded sans is desirable.
The tone is assertive and upbeat, combining a contemporary, athletic feel with approachable rounded forms. Its strong presence reads as confident and promotional, while the softened geometry prevents it from feeling harsh or technical.
The design appears intended as a high-impact oblique sans for contemporary display use, emphasizing speed, friendliness, and legibility through wide proportions, rounded geometry, and a consistent heavy stroke.
Spacing appears comfortable for large settings, producing an even, dense typographic color in headlines. Curves are notably smooth and full, with a generally circular logic in bowls and counters that supports quick recognition in short bursts of copy.
