A heavy, oblique sans with rounded construction and tightly contained counters. The letterforms lean forward with a stable, broad footprint and smooth, low-detail outlines. Curves are full and circular (notably in O, Q, and the bowls), while diagonals and joins are simplified into sturdy wedges, keeping the texture dense and even. Stroke endings are blunt and softly eased rather than sharp, producing a consistent, impact-driven rhythm across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to display applications where weight and slant can carry a strong voice—headlines, posters, and promotional layouts. It also fits sporty or retro-leaning branding, packaging, and bold signage where quick recognition matters more than long-form comfort. In dense paragraphs it may feel dark and compact, but it performs well in short bursts and large sizes.
The overall tone is bold and energetic, with a forward-leaning posture that suggests speed and momentum. Its chunky geometry and softened corners add a friendly, approachable edge, giving it a retro athletic feel that reads as confident and attention-seeking rather than refined or delicate.
The design appears intended to deliver high-impact communication with a sense of motion, combining a forward-leaning stance with rounded, simplified shapes for friendly strength. It prioritizes bold presence and consistent, graphic silhouettes over fine detail, aiming for immediate legibility in branding and display contexts.
The lowercase shows single-storey shapes for a and g, reinforcing a streamlined, geometric approach. Dots on i and j are round and prominent, and several glyphs use compact apertures that increase darkness at text sizes. Numerals follow the same heavy, oblique logic with broad, blocky silhouettes suited to display settings.
