A slanted, wide sans with rounded, geometric construction and moderate stroke contrast. Letterforms are built from solid shapes that are repeatedly interrupted by horizontal dash-like cuts, creating a consistent striped texture across stems, bowls, and counters. Curves are smooth and fairly circular, terminals are clean and blunt, and spacing reads open enough for display use, while the striping adds strong internal rhythm and visual noise.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and logo/wordmark work where the striped segmentation can read clearly and contribute to the overall graphic voice. It also works well for event branding, sports graphics, tech-themed packaging, and short UI labels where a dynamic, high-impact look is desired.
The repeated horizontal breaks give the face a fast, scanning feel—evoking motion blur, signal interference, or aerodynamic striping. It balances playful retro energy with a crisp, engineered attitude that feels at home in tech-forward and sporty contexts.
The design appears intended to turn a straightforward italic grotesk into a distinctive display voice by introducing a systematic horizontal segmentation. The goal is likely to suggest speed and digital texture while keeping letterforms simple, bold, and legible at larger sizes.
The dash pattern is applied consistently across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, so the texture becomes a core part of the color of text. At smaller sizes the striping may visually merge into a darker banded tone, while at larger sizes it becomes a distinctive graphic detail that can carry a headline on its own.
