A heavy, slanted sans with rounded, superellipse-like construction and softly squared curves throughout. Strokes are monolinear with smooth terminals, and counters are compact and clean, keeping the silhouette solid at display sizes. The italic angle is consistent and feels mechanically sheared rather than calligraphic, while the overall proportions stay fairly wide with generous bowls and stable, flat-ish horizontals. Figures and capitals read sturdy and simplified, with rounded corners and minimal modulation lending a cohesive, contemporary texture.
Best suited for headlines, brand marks, and short-form messaging where the bold, oblique stance can carry a strong voice. It also fits sports and tech-adjacent graphics, packaging callouts, and promotional materials that benefit from a modern, friendly punch. For longer text, it works most naturally as an accent style—used for emphasis, pull quotes, or energetic subheads.
The tone is fast and assertive, with a sporty, forward-leaning rhythm that suggests motion and confidence. Rounded geometry softens the impact, adding an approachable, friendly edge while maintaining a modern, performance-oriented feel.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, motion-driven sans that feels both strong and approachable. By pairing a pronounced slant with rounded superellipse geometry and low-detail construction, it aims for high-impact clarity and a distinctive, modern brand tone.
The letterforms emphasize smooth, rectilinear curves (rounded-rectangle bowls) and blunt, rounded terminals, creating strong, high-contrast silhouettes against the page without relying on fine details. In paragraphs, the slant produces a lively cadence and a compact, punchy color that favors emphasis over neutrality.
