A very heavy, forward-leaning display face with sharp, chamfered terminals and wedge-like slab details that give the letters a cut, engineered feel. Curves are tightened into squarish bowls and counters, while joins and corners are emphasized with strong angles, producing a crisp, high-impact rhythm. The overall texture is dense and dark, yet the internal shapes stay fairly open, helping the forms read clearly at headline sizes. Figures match the letterforms with similarly angular construction and bold, compact silhouettes.
Best suited for short, bold settings where its angular details and heavy color can work as a graphic element—headlines, poster titles, logos, and attention-grabbing packaging. It can also support sporty or action-oriented branding where a sense of speed and impact is desirable.
The tone feels loud and kinetic, with a slightly mischievous, custom-lettered attitude. Its sharp slants and blocky cuts suggest speed and impact, landing somewhere between sporty bravado and comic-book punchiness.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch with a quirky, custom-cut silhouette—combining dense strokes with sharp wedges and slab-like accents to stand out in display typography. The consistent slant and angular construction aim to communicate motion and attitude more than neutrality or long-form readability.
Caps carry a broad-shouldered stance and consistent slant, while the lowercase keeps the same aggressive geometry rather than becoming more calligraphic. The distinctive cut-ins and wedge serifs create a recognizable silhouette, especially in diagonals like A, N, V, W, and the angular bowls of O/Q and 8/9.
