A narrow, oblique sans with monoline strokes and a distinctly angular, geometric construction. Curves are largely replaced by chamfered corners and straight segments, producing squared bowls and counters in letters like O, D, and P. Terminals are crisp and often cut on an angle, while horizontals stay thin and even, keeping contrast minimal. The overall rhythm is compact and forward-leaning, with slightly variable apparent widths from glyph to glyph and a clean, engineered texture in text.
Best suited for display use where its angular geometry and oblique energy can be appreciated—headlines, posters, esports or gaming graphics, tech and hardware branding, UI accents, and product marks. It can work for short text blocks at larger sizes, but its condensed proportions and squared forms will be most effective when given space and contrast.
The face conveys a futuristic, technical tone—more like instrumentation lettering than traditional typography. Its sharp joins and slanted stance suggest motion and precision, giving it a sporty, sci‑fi flavor without feeling decorative or distressed.
The design appears intended to deliver a clean, sci‑fi-leaning sans for impactful display typography, prioritizing geometric consistency, sharp corners, and a sense of forward motion. Its restrained stroke weight and minimal contrast support a modern, engineered aesthetic geared toward contemporary digital and technical contexts.
Distinctive details include boxy, open shapes in several capitals and numerals, and a generally squared treatment of curves that reads well at larger sizes. The oblique angle is consistent across cases, which reinforces a streamlined, mechanical feel, while the simplified geometry can make similar forms feel intentionally uniform.
