A slanted, heavy sans with rounded-rectangle construction and softened corners throughout. Strokes are smooth and largely monolinear, with compact counters and wide, sturdy joins that keep shapes dense and stable. Curves tend toward superelliptical geometry rather than true circles, giving bowls and rounds a squared-off, modern feel. Terminals are clean and blunt, and the overall rhythm is tight and forward-leaning with consistent curvature across letters and numerals.
Best suited to branding and display settings where strong presence and a sense of motion are useful, such as posters, sports and lifestyle identities, packaging, and promotional graphics. It can also work for short UI labels or navigation in larger sizes where its compact counters and slant remain clear.
The tone reads energetic and assertive while staying approachable due to the rounded geometry. Its forward slant and compact, muscular forms suggest motion and modernity, making it feel sporty and contemporary rather than formal or delicate.
The design appears intended to combine the immediacy of a heavy italic with softened, superelliptical shaping for a modern, friendly impact. It prioritizes bold emphasis, speed cues, and consistent geometric rounding to create a cohesive display voice across letters and numbers.
Lowercase forms keep a pragmatic, engineered look with single-storey structures where shown and minimal detailing, reinforcing clarity at larger sizes. Numerals appear similarly compact and sturdy, matching the letterforms’ rounded-rectangular logic and maintaining consistent visual weight across the set.
