A heavy, right-slanted slab serif with compact proportions and strongly squared-off terminals. The letterforms are built from broad, blocky strokes with minimal contrast, and many strokes are interrupted by sharp, diagonal notches that create a cutout, stencil-like effect. Counters are relatively tight, curves are restrained and slightly squared, and the overall rhythm reads as punchy and mechanical. Numerals and capitals carry the same angular cut-ins, helping the design maintain a consistent, rugged texture in display sizes.
Well-suited for headlines, posters, branding marks, and packaging where a bold, kinetic voice is needed. It can also work in signage or labels that benefit from a rugged, engineered look, particularly when set at larger sizes where the cutout details remain clear.
The font projects a tough, utilitarian energy with a retro-industrial edge. Its slanted stance and aggressive cut-ins add motion and attitude, evoking workwear, sports branding, and stamped or machined lettering.
Likely designed to merge a sturdy slab-serif base with a distinctive cut-in treatment that adds speed, grit, and visual texture. The goal appears to be strong shelf impact and recognizability through repeated angular notches and squared terminals.
The diagonal incisions are a defining motif and can create noticeable patterning across words, especially in repeated vertical strokes. Spacing appears tuned for impactful headlines rather than long-form reading, with the dense interior shapes and cutouts becoming a prominent visual feature as size decreases.
