This typeface is a heavy, right-slanted sans with rounded construction and softly blunted terminals. Curves are broad and smooth, counters are generously open for the weight, and joins feel sturdy and compact, producing a dense, high-impact texture. The slant is consistent across uppercase and lowercase, with a forward-leaning rhythm and slightly tightened spacing that helps it read as a cohesive, blocky voice.
Best suited for short-form display settings where impact matters: headlines, posters, logos, and brand marks. The strong slant and chunky forms also work well for sports, entertainment, and packaging applications that benefit from a dynamic, friendly presence.
The overall tone is bold and upbeat, with a forward motion that suggests speed and action. Its rounded shapes keep the weight from feeling aggressive, lending a friendly, contemporary personality suited to energetic messaging.
The design appears intended as a bold italic display sans that combines geometric simplicity with softened, rounded details. Its goal is to deliver strong visibility and motion while maintaining approachability through open counters and smooth curves.
Uppercase forms lean geometric and simplified, while the lowercase introduces more playful, single-storey shapes (notably in a and g) that reinforce an informal feel. Numerals match the same thick, rounded logic, staying highly visible and poster-ready.
