A compact, forward-slanted sans with heavy, even strokes and strongly rounded terminals. The letterforms are built from softened rectangular curves, producing superellipse-like counters and a tight, streamlined silhouette. Curves and joins stay smooth and continuous, with minimal contrast and a consistent, inky color that holds together in words. Spacing is snug and the overall rhythm is fast and vertical, with simplified shapes and sturdy shoulders that keep the texture uniform in running text.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings where the condensed width and heavy color can create impact: headlines, posters, logos, packaging, and apparel or sports-themed graphics. It can also work for subheads and pull quotes when ample line spacing is available.
The tone feels upbeat and kinetic, combining a retro display attitude with a friendly, approachable softness. Its rounded geometry and steady weight read as confident and sporty rather than formal, giving headlines a lively, modern-vintage flavor.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum punch in limited horizontal space while maintaining a friendly, rounded voice. Its smooth, italicized construction suggests motion and speed, prioritizing bold presence and cohesive word shapes over delicate detail.
Uppercase forms are tall and compact, while lowercase keeps a straightforward construction with rounded bowls and a clearly separated dot on the i/j. Numerals match the same condensed, rounded-rectangle logic, staying bold and highly legible at display sizes.
