An italic slab-serif with crisp, squared terminals and a firm, engineered structure. Strokes are clean and fairly even with moderate contrast, while the slanted construction gives the forms a forward-leaning rhythm. Serifs read as blocky and unbracketed, often appearing as short rectangular feet and caps that sharpen the joins and reinforce a mechanical feel. Uppercase proportions run a bit narrow and tall, and the overall drawing favors straight segments and tight curves for a compact, controlled texture in text.
Well-suited to short-to-medium setting where a bold, engineered personality is helpful—headlines, branding marks, labels, packaging, and promotional graphics. It can also work for sports or automotive-inspired layouts where forward motion and solidity are desirable.
The font conveys a utilitarian, no-nonsense tone with a subtle retro-industrial flavor. Its oblique stance adds momentum and urgency, suggesting motion, speed, and capability rather than softness or tradition.
The design appears intended to combine the solidity and legibility of a slab-serif with the energy of an italic, producing a compact, high-impact voice for attention-grabbing typography.
The numerals follow the same squared, slightly condensed logic, keeping a consistent pace across alphanumerics. The italic angle is noticeable without becoming overly calligraphic, maintaining a constructed, display-friendly character.
