A very heavy, right-slanted sans with rounded corners and soft, slightly bulging curves. The strokes are broadly uniform, creating dense black shapes with minimal internal counters and a compact, poster-like texture. Terminals are blunt and smoothly finished, and curves are drawn with a slightly irregular, “bouncy” rhythm that gives letters a lively, hand-cut feel while remaining clean and geometric overall. Numerals and capitals read sturdy and blocky, with the slant and rounded joins keeping the set from feeling rigid.
Best suited to short, bold applications where the strong silhouette can do the work: headlines, posters, logotypes, packaging, and energetic brand systems. It can also work for sports or lifestyle graphics and social media titles where a compact, high-impact texture is desirable.
The overall tone is energetic and extroverted, with a sporty, retro-leaning attitude. Its chunky forms and forward motion suggest action, fun, and casual confidence rather than formality or restraint.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch with a friendly, rounded construction and a pronounced forward slant. It prioritizes bold presence and motion for display typography, aiming for quick recognition and a lively, contemporary-retro feel.
In text, the weight and tight apertures produce strong impact but can reduce clarity at smaller sizes, especially where counters narrow (e.g., in bowls and enclosed shapes). The italic angle is assertive, so spacing and line breaks benefit from a bit of breathing room in longer passages.
