A slanted, faceted sans with planar cuts that replace curves, producing octagonal counters and chamfered corners throughout. Strokes are monolinear and crisp, with squared terminals and a consistent, engineered rhythm. Uppercase forms feel compact and angular, while the lowercase leans more constructed than calligraphic, with single‑storey shapes and sharply notched joins. Numerals echo the same geometry, with distinctive polygonal bowls and straight-sided diagonals.
Best suited to display settings where its angular construction can read as a deliberate stylistic choice: headlines, branding, product marks, esports/sports graphics, packaging, and UI moments that want a technical accent. It can work for short blocks of copy, but its faceted texture is strongest at larger sizes.
The overall tone is modern and machine-like, suggesting speed, precision, and a slightly aggressive edge. Its facets evoke industrial design and sci‑fi interfaces, giving text a tactical, performance-oriented feel.
The design appears intended to translate a clean sans structure into a geometric, beveled vocabulary, emphasizing sharpness and forward motion while preserving legibility. The consistent chamfer logic across letters and numerals suggests a focus on cohesive, system-like form making for impactful display typography.
The heavy use of straight segments creates lively texture in running text, where repeated chamfers and angled terminals form a patterned cadence. Capitals read especially emblematic, while the lowercase maintains clarity but retains the same hard-edged construction.
