A heavy, right-leaning sans with broad, superelliptical curves and squared-off terminals that keep counters open and shapes sturdy. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, and the overall construction favors rounded-rectangle geometry in bowls and corners. Spacing feels tight and purposeful, with compact joins and robust intersections that hold up at large sizes. Lowercase forms are notably large relative to capitals, giving text a dense, continuous texture.
Best suited to short, high-impact typography such as headlines, posters, and display copy where weight and slant can do the work of grabbing attention. It also fits sports and lifestyle branding, packaging callouts, and bold signage where rounded geometry and sturdy counters help maintain clarity at distance.
The tone is bold and assertive while still approachable, combining athletic forward motion with soft, rounded edges. Its italic slant and chunky proportions read as energetic and contemporary, lending a sense of speed, impact, and confidence.
The design appears intended as a modern display sans that pairs strong, attention-getting mass with rounded superellipse construction for friendliness and legibility. The consistent slant suggests a focus on motion and emphasis, aiming for energetic branding and headline settings rather than quiet, long-form reading.
Round letters (like o/e) sit on smooth superellipse-like contours, while diagonals (v/w/x/y) are strong and angular, emphasizing momentum. Numerals are similarly hefty and simplified, with large interior spaces and blunt finishing for high visual stability.
