A very heavy, rounded sans with an oblique slant and soft, fully curved terminals. Strokes are thick and even, with minimal modulation, producing dense letterforms and strong color on the page. Counters and apertures are relatively compact, and many joins are smoothly blended, giving the alphabet a molded, cushioned feel. Uppercase forms are broad and stable, while the lowercase maintains a sturdy, readable structure with simple, single-storey shapes and a consistent, forward-leaning rhythm.
Best suited to headlines, short statements, and bold branding where impact and warmth are needed—such as posters, event graphics, packaging callouts, storefront or wayfinding signage, and attention-grabbing UI labels. It can work for brief text blocks when set generously, but it reads strongest when used for display.
The overall tone is approachable and energetic, with a sporty, pop-graphic attitude. Its rounded construction and strong weight make it feel friendly rather than severe, while the slant adds motion and momentum suited to lively messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence with a friendly, rounded voice, combining heavy strokes with a forward-leaning stance to suggest speed and confidence. The consistent, simplified shapes prioritize immediate recognition and a modern, approachable character.
At larger sizes the forms feel confident and punchy, and the soft corners help prevent the weight from looking harsh. In longer lines the heavy strokes and tight internal spaces can make text feel dense, so spacing and size choices will strongly influence clarity.
