A compact, slanted display face built from angular, faceted strokes with clipped corners and mostly straight-sided curves. The letterforms lean forward with a consistent rightward slant, producing a fast, energetic rhythm. Stems are thick and blocky, with a continuous inline cut that runs through the black shapes, creating a carved, dimensional feel. Counters are small and often polygonal, and curves (like C, G, S) resolve into chamfered segments rather than smooth arcs. Overall spacing is tight and the forms read tall and condensed, with a noticeably small x-height relative to the capitals.
Best suited to large-size applications where the inline carving and faceted details can fully resolve—headlines, posters, and brand marks. It also fits sports and motorsport graphics, team or event identities, and bold packaging or merchandise where a fast, competitive tone is desired. For longer text, it works more as short bursts (tags, subheads, callouts) than continuous reading.
The tone is forceful and kinetic, pairing a retro athletic attitude with a hard-edged, engineered look. The inline detail adds a flashy, sign-painted or jersey-like character that feels loud and attention-seeking. Its sharp geometry and forward slant suggest speed, competition, and a slightly aggressive confidence.
The design appears intended as a high-impact display face that merges condensed, forward-leaning proportions with a carved inline to amplify visibility and style. Its consistent chamfered geometry suggests an aim for a cohesive, emblematic look reminiscent of athletic lettering and industrial signage.
Distinctive triangular notches, chamfered terminals, and angular bowls give the design a uniform octagonal construction across letters and numerals. The inline cut remains consistent enough to unify the alphabet while adding texture at larger sizes. Numerals share the same faceted build, supporting strong headline use and score/number-driven layouts.
