A heavy, rounded sans with compact proportions and strongly simplified geometry. Curves are built from broad, near-circular bowls and smooth arcs, paired with sturdy verticals and blunt terminals that read cleanly at large sizes. Counters are relatively tight and apertures tend to be somewhat closed, giving the face a dense, poster-ready texture. The lowercase shows a prominent x-height and short extenders, while the uppercase feels wide and stable with even, consistent stroke logic across the set.
Best suited to headlines and short bursts of copy where impact and clarity matter—posters, display typography, branding marks, packaging, and sports or event collateral. It can work for brief subheads, but the dense counters and tight apertures make it less ideal for extended small-size reading.
The overall tone is bold and approachable, with a sporty, headline-driven energy. Its rounded forms soften the weight, keeping the voice friendly rather than aggressive, while the dense rhythm lends a confident, attention-grabbing presence.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum presence with rounded, geometric shapes that stay legible and cohesive in bold settings. It aims to provide a modern display voice that feels energetic and accessible, balancing heft with friendly curvature.
The design maintains a consistent roundness in bowls and joins, producing a cohesive, slightly retro feel reminiscent of mid-century display sans and contemporary athletic branding. Numerals match the weight and compactness of the letters, keeping text blocks visually uniform.
