A heavy, oblique sans with broad, rounded forms and minimal stroke modulation. Curves are smooth and full (notably in C, O, S, and the bowls of b/d/p/q), while joins and terminals are generally blunt and clean, creating a sturdy, poster-like texture. Counters stay open despite the weight, and the overall rhythm is compact and dense, with straightforward, utilitarian letter construction.
Best suited to short, high-impact text where bold presence and speed are desirable—headlines, posters, sports and fitness branding, promotional graphics, packaging callouts, and attention-grabbing signage. It can also work for UI labels or buttons when a strong, energetic voice is needed.
The tone is assertive and athletic, with a forward-leaning slant that reads fast and dynamic. Its chunky curves and solid color give it a friendly toughness—more contemporary and action-oriented than formal or delicate.
Likely designed to deliver maximum visual impact in a compact, slanted, contemporary sans style. The emphasis appears to be on bold legibility at display sizes, with rounded geometry and a clean, uncomplicated construction that reproduces well across print and digital contexts.
Uppercase forms are simple and geometric, while lowercase shows a single-storey a and g and a round, friendly e, reinforcing an informal, contemporary feel. Numerals are bold and highly legible with large internal spaces (8) and strong silhouettes (2, 3, 7).
