A heavy, slanted sans with rounded bowls and broadly curved terminals that keep the texture soft despite the weight. Forms are built from simple, robust geometry—ovals and circles—paired with angled joins and occasional notches that read like ink-trap cut-ins at tight counters and stroke intersections. Uppercase letters are wide and forceful with smooth curves (C, G, O, Q) and blunt, forward-leaning horizontals (E, F, T), while lowercase maintains a tall x-height and compact counters for a dense, poster-ready color. Numerals are similarly bold and rounded, with large internal apertures and simplified, athletic silhouettes.
Best suited to high-impact headlines, posters, and branding where the bold slant can convey motion and urgency. It also fits sports identities, energetic campaigns, and packaging or labels that benefit from a friendly but forceful display voice.
The overall tone is energetic and assertive, with a forward-leaning stance that suggests speed and momentum. Its rounded construction adds friendliness, while the dense weight and tight counters bring a competitive, headline-driven attitude reminiscent of sports and retro display lettering.
The design appears intended as a high-impact display sans that combines geometric roundness with a pronounced slant for motion, aiming for strong readability at large sizes and a lively, athletic presence in branding contexts.
Spacing appears tuned for display: the heavy strokes and slant create a strong rightward rhythm, and the round letters form a consistent, smooth stripe across words. Small cut-ins and narrowed joins help keep interiors from clogging at large sizes, giving the shapes a crisp, engineered feel.
