A heavy, right-slanted sans with rounded, superellipse-like construction and softened terminals throughout. Strokes are consistently thick with gently modulated curves, producing compact counters and a sturdy, blocky silhouette. The letterforms lean into broad, rounded rectangles and pill-shaped joins, with smooth transitions and minimal sharp angles. Overall spacing reads slightly tight, emphasizing a dense, impactful texture in words and lines of text.
Best suited to display work where strong presence and quick readability are needed, such as headlines, posters, apparel graphics, and energetic brand identities. The dense, rounded texture also works well for short slogans and packaging callouts where a friendly but forceful voice helps content stand out.
The tone is energetic and approachable, with a retro athletic feel that suggests motion and confidence. Its rounded geometry keeps the weight from feeling harsh, giving it a friendly, fun voice even at large sizes. The slant adds urgency and dynamism, making headlines feel active and bold.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a smooth, rounded aesthetic—combining bold signage-like clarity with an italicized sense of speed. Its simplified, superellipse-driven shapes prioritize strong word silhouettes and a consistent, contemporary-retro rhythm.
Uppercase forms appear especially robust and condensed in feel, while lowercase maintains the same rounded, weighty rhythm with simple, single-storey shapes. Numerals follow the same soft-shouldered, chunky style, staying highly visible and consistent with the overall geometry.
