A heavy, right-slanted sans with broad proportions and rounded, geometric bowls. Strokes are monolinear in feel, with soft corners and smooth curve transitions that keep forms sturdy and cohesive at large sizes. Counters are relatively compact, and the overall rhythm is dense and forward-leaning, with numerals and capitals sharing the same blocky, rounded construction.
Best suited to display applications where impact matters: headlines, posters, product packaging, and bold brand marks. The strong slant and heavy mass also fit sports and event graphics, and it can work in short UI labels or signage when set with generous spacing and size.
The tone is energetic and assertive, with a fast, italicized stance that reads as sporty and promotional. Its chunky geometry and soft rounding add a friendly, retro-leaning warmth while still feeling loud and confident.
Designed to deliver maximum visual punch through weight, width, and a consistent italic motion, while retaining approachable rounded forms. The geometry suggests an intention to balance speed and friendliness for attention-grabbing, modern display typography.
The slant is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, creating strong directional motion. Round letters (O, C, G, Q) emphasize circularity, while diagonals (A, K, V, W, X, Y, Z) stay thick and stable rather than sharp or delicate.
