A heavy, rounded sans with a pronounced forward slant and compact proportions. Strokes are thick and largely uniform, with smooth curves and softly blunted terminals that keep the texture dense and even. Counters are generous for the weight, and bowls (such as in B, P, and R) stay clean and open; the lowercase shows single‑storey a and g with simple, sturdy construction. Numerals are broad and stable with consistent stroke weight, reinforcing a solid, blocky rhythm at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and brand marks where a dense, high-impact voice is needed. The forward slant and rounded heft make it particularly effective for sporty identities, energetic campaigns, packaging, and short emphatic messaging rather than long-form text.
The overall tone is bold and energetic, with a sporty, momentum-driven feel created by the consistent oblique angle and compact mass. Its rounded shaping tempers the intensity, adding a friendly, approachable character while still reading as confident and assertive.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a clean, modern sans structure, combining strong weight and an oblique stance for speed and emphasis while keeping forms rounded to maintain friendliness and legibility at large sizes.
The italic angle is fairly strong and applied consistently across caps, lowercase, and figures, producing a cohesive sense of motion. The silhouette stays smooth and contemporary, favoring simple geometry and wide, rounded joins over sharp corners.
