A heavy, right-leaning display face built from sharp, chamfered geometry and wedge-like cuts. Strokes are chunky with consistently flattened terminals, frequent triangular notches, and occasional interior cutouts that give several letters a semi-stencil feel. Counters tend to be tight and boxy, and many forms show forward-pointing spur details that emphasize motion. The overall rhythm is compact and mechanical, with a deliberately irregular, customized look across the set rather than strict modular repetition.
Best used for short, high-impact text such as posters, event titles, game UI headings, sports or racing-themed branding, and logo wordmarks where the sharp silhouette can do the work. It’s also effective for packaging callouts and promotional graphics that benefit from a dynamic, tech-leaning voice.
The font reads fast and loud, with a sporty, arcade-like energy. Its aggressive angles and forward slant suggest speed, action, and a slightly mischievous, experimental attitude suited to attention-grabbing headlines.
The design appears intended to deliver a kinetic, futuristic display style through angled construction, wedge terminals, and decorative cut-ins that mimic speed and machined surfaces. It prioritizes distinctive silhouette and motion cues over conventional text readability.
The most distinctive signature is the repeated use of slanted “blade” terminals and small inset cuts, which create highlights and negative-space accents at larger sizes. Because counters and apertures are tight and the shapes are busy, legibility drops quickly at small sizes, but the texture becomes striking when set large with generous tracking.
