A heavy, oblique sans with compact, rounded-rectangle construction and smooth, low-modulation strokes. Curves are broad and simplified, with corners softened into superelliptical rounding rather than sharp terminals. Counters stay relatively open for the weight, and the overall rhythm is dense and forward-leaning, producing a tight texture in both uppercase and lowercase. Numerals match the chunky, streamlined forms and maintain consistent stroke presence across the set.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings like headlines, posters, sports and event branding, and promotional graphics where a forceful, fast visual voice is helpful. It can also work on packaging and social ads when large sizes and strong contrast against the background are available.
The combination of strong weight and a pronounced slant creates a sense of speed and assertiveness. Its rounded geometry keeps the tone friendly enough to avoid feeling harsh, while the mass and tilt still read as energetic and attention-grabbing.
Designed to deliver maximum impact with a streamlined, rounded geometry and a consistent forward slant, aiming for bold visibility and a sense of motion. The simplified superelliptical forms suggest an intention toward modern, approachable strength rather than technical or decorative complexity.
The italic angle is consistent across the alphabet, and the design favors sturdy silhouettes over fine detail. Letterforms generally avoid delicate joins or high contrast, prioritizing solid fill and clean, stable shapes that hold together at display sizes.
