A sharply angled, oblique sans with high-contrast strokes and a distinctly geometric, constructed feel. Forms are built from straight segments with clipped corners and frequent horizontal terminals, giving many glyphs a slightly “cut” or machined edge. Counters tend toward squared/rectangular shapes (notably in O/0 and related forms), while diagonals are narrow and decisive, producing a fast forward slant and a taut rhythm in text. Numerals and capitals share a cohesive, modular logic, with occasional extended baselines and open apertures that emphasize the engineered character.
Best suited to display applications where the angular construction and forward slant can carry the message: headlines, event posters, esports/sports graphics, product branding, and tech-themed UI callouts. It can also work for short subheads or labels when given sufficient size and spacing to preserve its sharp detailing.
The overall tone is fast, modern, and performance-oriented, with cues associated with motorsport, sci‑fi interfaces, and industrial design. Its slanted stance and sharp joins convey motion and urgency, while the segmented construction adds a technical, instrument-like flavor.
The design appears intended to deliver a sense of speed and precision through oblique geometry, clipped terminals, and squared counters—an atypical sans construction aimed more at impactful display typography than neutral text setting.
In running text, the pronounced slant and frequent straight horizontals create a lively, zig-zag texture; the design reads cleanly at display sizes but can feel busy when tightly tracked or used too small. The digit set appears particularly stylized and display-forward, reinforcing a dashboard/telemetry impression.
