Keywords: headlines, posters, branding, sportswear, packaging, sporty, assertive, playful, modern, energetic, impact, motion, approachability, rounded, oblique, chunky, compact counters, high impact.
A heavy, oblique sans with wide proportions and a smooth, rounded construction. Strokes are thick and even, with soft corners and generously curved bowls that keep forms friendly despite the mass. Counters are relatively tight in letters like a, e, and g, and apertures tend to be partially closed, producing a dense, punchy texture. The slant is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, and the overall rhythm reads blocky and stable with minimal modulation.
Best suited to display contexts where impact and momentum matter: headlines, posters, logos, sports and fitness branding, and bold packaging. It can also work for short UI labels or callouts when a strong, friendly emphasis is desired, though the dense counters suggest avoiding long passages of small text.
The tone feels bold and energetic, leaning sporty and promotional rather than quiet or editorial. Rounded shaping adds approachability, while the strong weight and forward slant bring urgency and motion, making the voice confident and attention-seeking.
Designed to deliver maximum visual presence with a forward-leaning stance and rounded, contemporary shapes. The intent appears to balance aggression and friendliness—creating a loud, modern voice that still feels approachable and cohesive across text and figures.
Uppercase forms are sturdy and simplified, while lowercase shows single-storey constructions (notably a and g) that enhance informality. Numerals match the letterforms in width and weight, reading clearly at display sizes with a cohesive, compact color.
