A heavy, slanted sans with compact proportions and uniformly thick strokes. Shapes are built from broad curves and softened corners, with terminals that feel rounded rather than sharply cut. The overall rhythm is steady and mechanical in spacing, while the letterforms themselves lean into a lively, forward-tilting stance. Counters are relatively open for the weight, and joins and curves stay smooth and consistent across the set.
Best suited for short, high-impact text such as headlines, posters, logos, and packaging where the weight and slant can project energy. It can also work for punchy UI labels or badges when a friendly, emphatic voice is needed, though long-form reading will feel dense due to the heavy stroke weight.
The tone reads bold and upbeat, with a friendly, approachable character. Its rounded construction and pronounced slant suggest motion and enthusiasm, giving it a sporty, poster-like presence that can feel lightly retro without becoming decorative.
The design appears intended to deliver a robust, energetic italic voice with a clean sans foundation, emphasizing smooth curves, strong silhouettes, and consistent spacing for dependable, high-visibility typography.
The numerals and capitals carry a strong, blocky silhouette that holds up well at display sizes, while the lowercase maintains a consistent, sturdy texture. The combination of strict spacing regularity and soft, rounded drawing creates a distinctive balance between utilitarian and playful.
