A heavy, slanted sans with wide, rounded proportions and tightly enclosed counters. Strokes are largely uniform, with soft curves and flattened terminals that create a solid, blocky silhouette. The letterforms lean consistently, with slightly condensed interior spaces that increase density at display sizes. Curves (O, C, G, Q) read as near-elliptical, while diagonals (A, K, V, W, X, Y, Z) are broad and stable, giving the face a strong rhythmic presence.
Best suited to headlines, short statements, and branding where impact and momentum are priorities. The dense shapes and compact counters make it most effective at medium-to-large sizes, such as posters, packaging callouts, sports or event graphics, and bold logo wordmarks.
The overall tone is energetic and bold, with a friendly, athletic feel. Its rounded massing and forward slant suggest motion and confidence, leaning toward sporty headline styling rather than quiet neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual weight with a streamlined, rounded construction and a consistent italic lean. It prioritizes immediacy and presence, aiming for a modern display sans that feels sporty, approachable, and loud.
Uppercase and lowercase share a similarly hefty build, producing a uniform color across lines. Numerals are equally stout and slightly stylized in their curves, matching the letterforms’ compact counters and forward-leaning stance.
