A rounded, geometric sans with a pronounced oblique slant and hefty, even stroke weight. Letterforms lean on circular bowls and smooth joins, paired with cleanly cut terminals and minimal modulation for a steady rhythm. Uppercase shapes are broad and stable, while lowercase forms keep simple, single-storey constructions and open apertures that help maintain clarity. Numerals follow the same rounded, sturdy construction, reading confidently in display settings.
Best suited to headlines, branding, and short-to-medium marketing copy where a strong, lively voice is needed. It performs well on posters, packaging, and social graphics, especially where an italicized, energetic emphasis is desired.
The overall tone is energetic and forward-moving, with a friendly, approachable warmth from the rounded curves. Its slant and solid presence give it a sporty, action-oriented feel that still reads clean and contemporary.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, approachable sans voice with built-in momentum, combining geometric roundness with a strong slant for immediate impact and legibility at larger sizes.
Curves are consistently smooth and generous, giving counters a full, open look. The oblique angle is strong enough to signal motion without becoming overly calligraphic, and the bold color creates clear emphasis in short lines and headlines.
