A heavy, forward-leaning sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. Strokes are broadly uniform with minimal modulation, creating dense, compact letterforms and strong vertical rhythm. Counters are relatively tight and apertures tend to be partially closed, while terminals are blunt and rounded rather than sharp. The italic angle is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and figures, and the overall spacing reads compact and poster-ready.
Best suited to headlines, wordmarks, and short bursts of text where impact and momentum matter. It works well for sports and leisure branding, event and poster graphics, packaging fronts, and bold UI/advertising callouts, especially when set with generous line spacing to keep dense shapes from clumping.
The tone is bold and kinetic, with a sporty, retro-leaning voice that feels assertive without becoming harsh thanks to the rounded geometry. Its slant adds motion and urgency, while the chunky proportions keep it friendly and approachable.
The design appears aimed at delivering a compact, high-impact italic sans that combines rounded, superelliptical structure with a confident display presence. The goal is immediacy and motion—letters that feel fast and strong—while retaining a friendly, modern smoothness through softened corners and uniform stroke weight.
Capital shapes stay simple and condensed, while lowercase forms show more personality in letters like a, g, y, and z, which adopt lively, curved constructions. Numerals match the same slanted, compact build, reading as sturdy display figures suited to short strings and prominent callouts.
