A compact, right-leaning sans with heavy strokes and softened, superellipse-like curves. Letterforms are built from sturdy, rounded-rectangle geometry, with tight apertures and minimal interior detailing, giving the shapes a dense, graphic silhouette. Terminals tend to look sheared or subtly wedge-cut, reinforcing forward motion, while curves stay smooth and inflated rather than sharp. The overall rhythm is lively and slightly irregular in width, with strong, dark texture and clear differentiation between rounded and straight elements.
Best suited for short to medium-length display settings where strong presence and motion are desirable—headlines, event graphics, sports or streetwear branding, packaging callouts, and bold editorial openers. It can work for brief subheads or UI accents at larger sizes, but its dense shapes and tight openings are most effective when given room to breathe.
The font conveys speed and impact with a friendly, retro edge. Its slanted stance and chunky forms feel assertive and athletic, while the rounded construction keeps it approachable rather than aggressive. The result is a confident display voice suited to energetic, attention-seeking messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver a high-impact, forward-moving display sans that blends rounded superellipse construction with an energetic slant. Its simplified, weighty forms prioritize instant recognition and strong silhouette over fine detail, aiming for a modern-retro, action-oriented tone.
The capitals read as blocky and poster-ready, while the lowercase maintains the same heavy, rounded logic with compact counters. Numerals are similarly weighty and stylized, matching the forward-leaning, cut-terminal motif for a cohesive set.
