A heavy, rounded sans with a consistent rightward slant and softly blunted stroke endings. Forms are built from broad curves and straight segments with eased corners, producing compact counters and a sturdy, even texture. Uppercase shapes feel wide and stable, while the lowercase keeps simple, single-storey constructions and a utilitarian rhythm. Numerals are similarly rounded and substantial, with clear silhouettes and minimal internal detailing.
Best suited to headlines, short phrases, and branding where a bold, personable voice is needed. It can work well on posters, packaging, signage, and sports or lifestyle graphics, especially when set with generous tracking or in larger sizes to keep the dense interior spaces from closing up.
The overall tone is approachable and energetic, with a sporty, informal presence. Its softened geometry and forward-leaning stance add momentum while staying friendly rather than aggressive, giving it a lightly retro, sign-and-title feel.
Likely designed to deliver a modern, rounded sans with an energetic slant for attention-grabbing display typography. The softened corners and simplified shapes prioritize friendliness and clarity while maintaining strong impact.
The italic angle is prominent enough to read as intentionally dynamic, and the heavy weight creates strong color in lines of text. Counters run slightly tight at display sizes, emphasizing impact over delicacy, and the rounded terminals help maintain legibility despite the dense strokes.
