A heavy, oblique sans with compact proportions and rounded-rectangle construction. Strokes are thick and largely monolinear, with soft corners and broad curves that read as superelliptical rather than geometric circles. Counters are tight and apertures tend to be small, producing dense, ink-rich word shapes with a strong forward slant. The lowercase shows a single-storey a and g, sturdy bowls, and short terminals, while figures are similarly chunky and tightly fit for consistent color in display sizes.
Best suited to display applications where impact and quick recognition matter, such as headlines, posters, and promotional graphics. The rounded, chunky shapes also work well for packaging and brand marks that aim for a bold, friendly presence, particularly in sporty or retro-leaning identities.
The overall tone is energetic and approachable, combining a sporty forward motion with soft, rounded forms. Its dense rhythm and emphatic weight feel assertive and attention-grabbing, while the curved corners keep it from feeling harsh.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum emphasis with a sense of motion, using rounded superelliptical geometry to keep the heavy weight approachable. It prioritizes strong silhouettes and dense typographic color for attention-centric settings rather than delicate text work.
Letterforms maintain a consistent, cohesive silhouette across caps and lowercase, with noticeable rightward momentum and a slightly compressed feel in internal spaces. The italic angle is pronounced enough to suggest speed, making headings look dynamic even in short phrases.
