A heavy, slanted sans with compact proportions and broad, low-contrast strokes. Curves and counters are based on rounded-rectangle geometry, giving letters like C, O, and G a smooth, superelliptical feel. Terminals are clean and blunt, with soft corners rather than sharp points, and the overall rhythm is tight and dense. Forms stay sturdy and simplified across the set, with rounded bowls and sturdy joins that keep color even in large blocks of text.
Best suited to display roles where strong presence is needed: posters, headlines, promotional graphics, and sporty branding. It can also work for short punchy subheads or UI promo callouts where a friendly but assertive voice is useful, but its density suggests avoiding long text passages at small sizes.
The tone is bold and forward-leaning, projecting motion and immediacy. Its rounded massing keeps it friendly, while the strong slant and dense weight add urgency and impact. Overall it feels athletic and promotional—designed to grab attention quickly.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a fast, dynamic slant while staying approachable through rounded, superelliptical construction. It prioritizes strong silhouette recognition and uniform, high-ink coverage for attention-grabbing display typography.
The italic construction reads as a true slant with consistent angle across capitals, lowercase, and numerals. Round letters retain ample interior space for the weight, and the numerals share the same compact, rounded-square construction, supporting cohesive headline setting.
