A heavy, right-slanted sans with rounded, geometric construction and smooth, continuous curves. Strokes are uniformly thick with minimal modulation, and terminals are cleanly cut, giving a crisp silhouette despite the softness of the bowls. Proportions read slightly expanded with generous overall presence, while counters remain fairly compact, producing a dense, high-impact texture in text. The uppercase shows broad, stable forms (notably the round letters), and the lowercase keeps a simple, contemporary skeleton with a single-storey a and g and straightforward, open apertures.
Best suited to branding, headlines, posters, and packaging where a strong, modern voice is needed and the slanted stance can add momentum. It also fits sports or tech-forward visual systems, and works well for short UI/marketing callouts where bold, rounded forms aid quick recognition.
The slant and weight combine to create a forward-moving, energetic tone that feels contemporary and assertive. Rounded forms keep it approachable rather than harsh, balancing utility with a subtle sporty attitude.
The design appears aimed at delivering high-impact, contemporary readability with a dynamic, forward-leaning posture and friendly roundness. It prioritizes bold presence and clean geometry for modern promotional and identity work.
Numerals are large and sturdy with round, friendly shapes (especially 0, 8, and 9) and clear differentiation at a glance. The italic angle is consistent across cases, and the overall rhythm favors smooth, circular motion over sharp corners, making the face feel cohesive in both display lines and short blocks of text.
