A heavy, slanted display sans built from straight segments and chamfered corners, replacing curves with crisp planar facets. Strokes appear largely uniform in thickness, with squared terminals and frequent diagonal cuts that create a machined, beveled look. The forms are condensed-to-medium in their set width with sturdy verticals, tight interior counters, and a rhythmic, slightly forward-leaning stance that keeps lines of text compact and assertive. Numerals and capitals share the same hard-edged construction, producing a consistent, modular texture across mixed-case settings.
Works best for short, high-impact text such as headlines, titles, branding marks, game UI/menus, event posters, and sports or team-style graphics. It can also suit tech-themed packaging or signage where a sharp, engineered voice is desired.
The overall tone is mechanical and energetic, evoking industrial labeling, sci‑fi interfaces, and competitive sports graphics. Its faceted geometry and italic drive give it a sense of motion and impact, reading as bold and purposeful rather than casual or literary.
The design appears intended to translate a sans structure into a faceted, chiseled system—prioritizing angular consistency, strong silhouette, and a forward-leaning tempo. It emphasizes recognizability and graphic punch over neutrality, making it well suited to display-driven typography.
The faceting is applied consistently across rounds (like C/O/Q) and diagonals (like K/V/W/X), giving a cohesive “cut metal” feel. Counters tend to stay narrow at smaller sizes, so the strongest visual impression comes through at larger display scales where the chamfers and angles can be clearly appreciated.
