A geometric sans with an oblique stance and a strong, even stroke. Curves are built from rounded-rectangle/superellipse logic, giving bowls and counters a squarish softness rather than pure circles. Terminals are clean and blunt, corners are consistently softened, and joins stay crisp, producing a compact, high-impact texture. The lowercase is straightforward and open, with single-storey forms and simple construction, while figures are wide and sturdy with the same rounded-corner geometry.
Best suited to headlines and short-to-medium copy where the oblique, rounded geometry can carry a strong visual identity. It works well for branding, packaging, and promotional graphics that want a modern, sporty feel, and can also support UI or product marketing where bold, readable shapes are needed.
The overall tone is energetic and contemporary, balancing athletic punch with approachable, rounded shapes. Its slanted posture adds motion and urgency, while the softened corners keep it friendly rather than aggressive.
The design appears intended to deliver a high-impact italic sans with a signature superellipse geometry—combining speed and confidence with softened, contemporary forms for distinctive branding and display use.
Round forms like O/C/G and the bowls in b/d/p/q read as squarish-round, creating a distinctive, cohesive rhythm across letters and numerals. The design emphasizes clarity at display sizes, with large counters and simplified details that stay consistent across the set.
