A condensed, forward-slanted sans with faceted, chamfer-like corners that break curves into planar segments. Strokes are heavy and largely uniform, producing a strong, compact rhythm with tight internal counters and crisp terminals. The forms favor squared geometry—octagonal bowls and clipped joins—while diagonals are prominent and consistent, reinforcing a fast, directional texture. Numerals and capitals read as sturdy, poster-ready shapes, and the lowercase keeps the same angular construction with simplified, compact apertures.
Best suited to headlines, logos, and short bursts of text where its condensed width and strong slant add urgency. It works well for sports and esports identities, event posters, packaging, and bold UI/overlay elements that need high impact in limited horizontal space.
The overall tone is forceful and kinetic, with a hard-edged, engineered feel. Its slant and clipped geometry suggest speed, impact, and a no-nonsense attitude, evoking motorsport, athletic branding, and tech-forward styling.
The design appears intended to deliver a fast, aggressive display voice by combining condensed proportions with a consistent faceted construction. The goal is a modern, high-energy aesthetic that stays legible while emphasizing motion and toughness.
The faceting is applied consistently across rounded letters and bends, creating a cohesive “machined” look rather than soft curves. Spacing appears tuned for display: dense sidebearings and dark color that holds together well at larger sizes, while fine interior openings may require extra size or tracking for small text.
