A heavy, oblique sans with sharply cut, angular forms and a distinctly machined silhouette. Strokes are uniform and dense, with squared terminals and frequent diagonal shears that create forward motion. Counters are small and often rectangular, and several glyphs use stylized cut-ins and notches that emphasize a stenciled, engineered feel. The overall rhythm is compact and forceful, prioritizing impact over openness, while maintaining consistent, geometric construction across the set.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, team or event graphics, and gaming/tech-themed UI titles. It also works well for logos and badges where an angular, performance-oriented voice is desired, while longer passages may feel visually dense due to the tight counters and aggressive shaping.
The font reads fast and hard-edged, evoking racing graphics, sci‑fi interfaces, and performance branding. Its slanted posture and chiseled corners add a sense of urgency and intensity, giving text a competitive, high-energy tone.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum punch with a forward-leaning, speed-coded look, using consistent diagonal shears and squared geometry to suggest motion and engineered precision. Its stylization aims to stand apart from neutral grotesques by adding a deliberate, athletic and sci‑fi edge.
The uppercase has a strong display presence with tight internal space, and the lowercase follows the same angular logic, keeping texture consistent in mixed-case settings. Numerals and punctuation adopt the same cut and notch motifs, helping headlines feel cohesive and deliberately stylized.
