A heavy, slanted sans with rounded, superellipse-like construction and softened corners throughout. Strokes are broadly uniform, producing solid, blocky silhouettes with generous curvature in bowls and counters. The letterforms lean forward with a lively, slightly bouncy rhythm; joins and terminals tend to be blunt and smoothly finished rather than sharply cut. Overall spacing feels open enough to keep dense weight readable, while the numerals and capitals maintain compact, poster-ready proportions.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, poster typography, sports or fitness branding, and promotional graphics where a bold slanted voice adds momentum. It can work for packaging and signage when used at larger sizes, where the rounded geometry and compact mass remain clear.
The face reads confident and kinetic, with a friendly bluntness that keeps it approachable despite its mass. Its forward slant and rounded shapes give it a sporty, action-oriented tone—more upbeat and informal than corporate. The overall impression is bold and attention-grabbing, suited to energetic messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a fast, forward-leaning feel while staying friendly through rounded, softened geometry. Its consistent stroke weight and chunky shapes prioritize immediate legibility and visual presence in display contexts.
Round letters like O, C, and G show squarish-rounded contours, reinforcing the superellipse feel. Many forms favor single-storey constructions in the lowercase, adding to the casual voice. The figures are stout and simplified, matching the headline-forward character of the alphabet.
