A heavy, slanted sans with broad, compact letterforms built from rounded-rectangle geometry. Curves are smooth and full, terminals are largely blunt, and counters stay open despite the dense weight, aided by slightly scooped joins and small cut-ins at tight corners. The italic angle is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, producing a forward-leaning rhythm that reads as energetic and emphatic. Figures are sturdy and simplified, matching the letters’ chunky proportions and soft-cornered silhouettes.
Best suited to high-impact applications such as headlines, posters, sports and event branding, and promotional graphics where a compact, forceful italic voice helps convey momentum. It can also work for short callouts on packaging or social creatives, but is less suited to extended small-size text due to its dense weight and tight internal spaces.
The overall tone is loud, assertive, and athletic, with a friendly softness coming from the rounded construction. It suggests motion and urgency without feeling sharp or technical, landing in a space that feels bold, approachable, and a bit throwback.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a streamlined, rounded, modernized geometric feel, combining a strong forward slant with compact proportions for motion and immediacy. The subtle corner cut-ins hint at practical attention to tight joins, helping preserve clarity in a very heavy style.
Uppercase shapes feel especially geometric and stable, while lowercase forms retain the same mass and rounded structure, keeping texture even in longer lines. The slant and tight spacing create a strong word-shape, making the face most at home at display sizes where its internal openings and corner cut-ins can breathe.
