A heavy, oblique sans with large, rounded counters and a soft, geometric construction. Strokes are thick and uniform, with crisp sheared terminals that emphasize the slant and give a cut, forward-leaning rhythm. Curves are broad and smooth, producing generous internal space in letters like O, Q, e, and a, while diagonals (K, V, W, X) read as sturdy wedges. Numerals share the same blunt, angled finish and dense, poster-like mass.
Best suited for headlines and short display copy where the weight and slant can deliver immediate impact. It works well for branding, packaging, and sports or event graphics that benefit from a fast, punchy voice. For longer passages, it will be most effective at larger sizes where the rounded counters and dense strokes can breathe.
The overall tone is bold and upbeat, combining a sporty forward motion with a friendly, approachable roundness. Its chunky forms and strong slant suggest speed and impact, while the smooth curves keep it from feeling harsh or industrial.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum visual impact with a lively, forward-leaning stance, pairing geometric roundness with sharply cut terminals for a dynamic display voice.
The design maintains a consistent oblique angle across capitals, lowercase, and figures, creating strong horizontal momentum in lines of text. The palette of shapes relies on circular bowls and simplified joins, giving the alphabet a cohesive, logo-ready presence.
