A rounded sans with a consistent rightward slant and generous, soft curves throughout. Strokes are thick and even, with low modulation and smoothly blunted terminals that create a rubbery, marker-like feel. Letterforms favor broad bowls and open apertures; spacing reads airy in display sizes, while the overall rhythm stays lively due to the italic angle and slightly springy shaping. Numerals match the same rounded, forward-leaning construction for a cohesive alphanumeric set.
Well-suited for display typography where a friendly, energetic voice is needed—posters, headlines, logos, and product packaging. It can also work for short-to-medium text in informal contexts (ads, social graphics, event materials) where the slant and thick strokes are an asset rather than a distraction.
The tone is upbeat and approachable, projecting a casual, energetic personality. Its smooth rounding and pronounced slant give it a sporty, retro-leaning warmth that feels informal and welcoming rather than technical or austere.
Likely designed to deliver an approachable, high-impact sans that feels fast and contemporary without becoming sharp or aggressive. The rounded geometry and strong slant suggest an emphasis on motion, friendliness, and easy readability at larger sizes.
The italic construction is strong enough to read as a key stylistic feature, adding motion and emphasis even in plain text. Round letters (like O/C/S) keep clean, continuous curves, and the set maintains a consistent softness at joins and endpoints, reinforcing a cohesive, friendly texture across paragraphs.
