A heavy, slanted sans with rounded construction and softened corners throughout. Strokes are thick and largely uniform, with broad curves and compact internal counters that keep letterforms dense and punchy. Terminals tend to be blunt and slightly rounded rather than sharply cut, and the overall rhythm feels forward-leaning and energetic. Uppercase forms read sturdy and geometric, while lowercase forms stay simple and open with single-storey-style shapes where expected, prioritizing clarity over fine detail.
Best suited for attention-grabbing display roles such as headlines, posters, logos, and short emphatic messaging where its mass and slant can carry energy. It can also work well on packaging and branding for products that benefit from a friendly, sporty presence, especially at medium to large sizes.
The tone is upbeat and approachable, combining a sporty forward motion with a friendly, rounded warmth. Its bulk and soft geometry give it a playful confidence that feels more casual than corporate, with a mild retro flavor reminiscent of display lettering used for headlines and badges.
The design appears aimed at delivering maximum impact with an inviting, rounded voice—combining a bold, energetic slant with simple, geometric forms for clear recognition in display typography.
The dense weight and compact counters make the texture darker at smaller sizes, while the consistent curves keep the silhouette smooth in large settings. Numerals are bold and rounded to match the letters, designed to hold their shape clearly in headline contexts.
