A heavy, right-leaning slab serif with chunky, bracketed slabs and softened corners that keep the dense shapes from feeling rigid. Strokes show noticeable but not extreme modulation, with broad stems and tapered joins that create a lively, slightly uneven rhythm across words. Counters are compact and apertures tend to be tight, boosting impact at display sizes. The lowercase has a buoyant, slightly swashy texture, while the figures are bold and rounded with strong presence.
Best suited to display typography such as posters, big headlines, event graphics, and bold branding where impact and motion are desired. It can also work on packaging and labels that benefit from a vintage-meets-athletic voice, especially in short phrases and prominent callouts.
The overall tone feels retro and extroverted, combining old poster weight with a sporty, headline-driven swagger. Its bounce and slant suggest motion and enthusiasm, making it read as bold, friendly, and attention-seeking rather than formal.
This design appears intended to deliver maximum punch with a slanted, energetic slab-serif voice—combining sturdy, poster-like slabs with enough curvature and modulation to keep the texture lively. The goal seems to be strong readability at large sizes while projecting a confident, retro-graphic character.
Capitals are compact and blocky with assertive slabs, while the lowercase introduces more curvature and personality, creating a noticeable shift in texture between cases. The italic angle and the dynamic terminals give lines a forward push, and spacing appears tuned for compact, impactful setting rather than airy text.
