A heavy, oblique sans with generously rounded corners and a compact, muscular build. Strokes are low-contrast and broadly uniform, with rounded terminals and softly squared (superellipse-like) curves that keep counters open despite the weight. Uppercase forms are blocky and stable, while lowercase adds a slightly more flowing rhythm with single-storey a and g–like simplicity and a sturdy, upright structure translated into a consistent slant. Numerals follow the same chunky, rounded construction for a cohesive texture in mixed text.
Best suited to headlines and short-to-medium display settings where its weight and slant can communicate momentum. It works well for branding, sports and lifestyle graphics, packaging callouts, and promotional posters that need a bold, friendly presence. For lengthy body copy, it will be most effective when given ample size and spacing to maintain clarity.
The overall tone is bold and upbeat, combining a contemporary athletic punch with a hint of retro signage friendliness. Its rounded geometry softens the impact of the weight, making it feel approachable rather than aggressive, while the slant adds speed and motion.
This design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a fast, forward-leaning stance, while using rounded, superellipse-like shapes to keep the voice warm and accessible. The goal is a strong display sans that reads quickly, holds up at large sizes, and projects energetic confidence.
The large black shapes create strong word silhouettes and a dense, high-ink texture, especially in longer lines. Rounded joins and terminals help prevent the face from feeling sharp or technical, keeping the rhythm smooth across both caps and lowercase.
