A faceted sans with hard, planar cuts that replace curves with chamfered corners and straight segments. Strokes are heavy and mostly uniform, with a consistent right-leaning slant and broad, extended proportions that give letters a forward, compressed-in-motion feel. Counters tend toward squared/octagonal forms (notably in O, D, 0, 8, 9), and terminals are clipped rather than rounded, producing crisp, mechanical joins. Spacing reads moderately tight in text, while the enlarged forms maintain strong silhouette clarity through simplified geometry and large interior openings.
Best suited to display use where its angular facets and slanted momentum can read as intentional design—headlines, logos, product naming, and sports or gaming interfaces. It can also work for short UI labels or packaging callouts, especially when you want a technical, performance-driven character rather than a neutral text voice.
The overall tone feels assertive and engineered—more "machined" than humanist. Its angular rhythm and forward slant suggest speed and performance, while the faceted detailing adds a tactical, sci‑fi edge suited to modern tech and sport aesthetics.
The design appears intended to translate a geometric, faceted construction into a forceful italicized sans, emphasizing speed, impact, and a machined aesthetic. By standardizing chamfers and squared counters across letters and numerals, it aims for a cohesive, contemporary look that stays legible at larger sizes while projecting a distinctly technical personality.
Diagonal construction is a defining motif: many glyphs rely on slanted strokes and beveled corners, which creates a consistent, purposeful texture across lines. The numeral set matches the letterforms closely, using the same octagonal counter logic and clipped terminals for a cohesive alphanumeric voice.
