A heavy, slanted sans with rounded terminals and smooth, continuous curves throughout. Strokes are thick and even, with softened corners that keep the silhouettes friendly despite the weight. Counters are relatively tight and the overall rhythm feels compact and bouncy, with slightly lively, individualized shapes that avoid a rigid geometric feel. The numerals match the same rounded, sturdy construction for a cohesive set in display sizes.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and short bursts of copy where impact and personality matter more than long-form readability. It also fits packaging, signage, and sporty or youth-oriented branding that benefits from a bold, friendly, motion-forward voice.
The tone is upbeat and energetic, leaning sporty and approachable rather than formal. Its rounded, chunky forms read as confident and fun, with a retro-pop sensibility that feels well suited to bold statements and casual branding.
Likely designed to provide a high-impact italic display voice that feels modern and lively, combining sturdy weight with rounded forms for approachability. The goal appears to be instant visual presence with a playful, athletic energy.
The strong slant and dense blackness create a forward-driving texture in text, while the soft terminals prevent it from feeling harsh. At smaller sizes, the tight counters and weight may reduce clarity, but at headline sizes it delivers strong impact.
