A heavy, oblique sans with compact, rounded-rectangle (superellipse-like) forms and broad, low-contrast strokes. Curves are full and closed, counters are relatively tight, and terminals tend to end in smooth, blunt cuts rather than sharp points. The letterforms lean forward with a steady, even rhythm, and the overall silhouette reads as sturdy and slightly condensed in feel despite largely straightforward construction.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, display copy, posters, and bold branding. It can work well on packaging and apparel graphics where a compact, energetic italic voice helps convey motion and urgency.
The tone is bold and kinetic, with a sporty, attention-grabbing presence. Its forward slant and chunky geometry give it a confident, poster-like attitude that feels at home in energetic, consumer-facing design.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch with a clean sans structure, using rounded superelliptical geometry and an italic stance to suggest speed and modernity while staying approachable.
The mix of rounded bowls and firm, straight-sided stems creates a friendly-but-tough texture. Numerals and capitals appear designed for impact more than delicacy, maintaining consistent heft and a strong, uniform color across lines of text.
