A heavy, slanted sans with soft, superelliptical curves and generously rounded terminals. Strokes are thick and even, with minimal contrast, and the overall silhouette feels compact and buoyant rather than rigid. Counters are relatively small for the weight, and the shapes lean on rounded-rectangle geometry—especially in O/C/D-style forms—while diagonals and joins stay smooth and blunt. The lowercase is sturdy and simplified, with single-storey a and g, a compact e, and short, sturdy arms on letters like r and t that keep the texture dense and cohesive.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, logos, packaging, and poster typography where the rounded weight and slanted stance can do the work. It can also serve for badges, labels, and social graphics that need a friendly but forceful presence, especially at medium to large sizes.
The tone is upbeat and approachable, with a bold, energetic slant that suggests motion. Its soft corners keep it friendly, while the chunky weight adds confidence and a slightly throwback, headline-driven feel.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a warm, rounded voice—combining a bold sans structure with softened geometry and a forward-leaning stance to convey energy and approachability in display typography.
The italic construction reads more like a true oblique with consistent stroke thickness and rounded, closed shapes throughout. Numerals match the letterforms in weight and softness, maintaining the same compact, sporty rhythm in text.
