A heavy, oblique sans with sharply angled terminals and blocky geometry. Strokes are cut with consistent, knife-like diagonals that create a forward-leaning, high-velocity rhythm, while counters are small and often squared or notched. Many forms feature deliberate cut-ins and gaps (notably in E, S, and several numerals), producing a segmented, engineered look. Curves are minimized and flattened into facets, giving the overall texture a compact, high-ink silhouette with crisp, mechanical edges.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as sports and esports branding, event posters, product marks, and punchy headlines. It also works for UI/overlay moments where a techno-industrial tone is desired, provided sizes are large enough to keep the cut details clear.
The design reads as fast, forceful, and technical—evoking motorsport graphics, sci‑fi interfaces, and industrial labeling. Its slanted stance and sharp cuts project urgency and impact, with a slightly militaristic, tactical flavor.
The letterforms appear designed to maximize impact and motion through an oblique stance and repeated diagonal cuts, creating a cohesive “speed” aesthetic. The segmented details and tight counters suggest an intention to feel engineered and rugged rather than neutral, prioritizing bold display presence over text readability.
The alphabet shows strong stylistic consistency through repeated diagonal shears and rectangular counters. Numerals match the same faceted construction, and the small interior apertures emphasize a dense, poster-like color. The distinctive notches and breaks add character but also increase visual noise at smaller sizes.
