A heavy, oblique sans with soft superelliptical curves and rounded-rectangle geometry throughout. Strokes are thick and even, with low contrast and blunt terminals that keep counters open and shapes sturdy. Letterforms lean forward consistently, with fairly compact proportions and a smooth, slightly condensed rhythm; curves and joins are simplified to feel clean and robust rather than delicate.
Best suited to display applications where bold, energetic emphasis is needed—headlines, posters, brand wordmarks, packaging, and campaign graphics. The forward slant and robust shapes also fit athletic and lifestyle branding, and it can serve short UI labels or signage when a friendly but forceful tone is desired.
The overall tone is upbeat and assertive, combining a sporty forward motion with friendly, rounded shapes. It reads as contemporary and approachable, with enough weight to feel confident and attention-grabbing without becoming harsh.
Designed to deliver a strong, modern presence with a sense of motion and accessibility. The softened superellipse structure and uniform stroke weight aim for high impact and quick recognition in large sizes while keeping the texture smooth and contemporary.
Uppercase forms stay simple and blocky with broad bowls and softened corners, while lowercase maintains a clear, single-storey construction where applicable and a sturdy, utilitarian texture. Numerals match the same rounded, solid build, supporting a cohesive voice across mixed alphanumeric settings.
