A heavy, right-leaning sans with dramatic stroke contrast and a distinctly sculpted, cut-in construction. Many letters show wedge-like notches and razor-thin internal slices that break up the heavy strokes, creating a “shaved” look and strong directional flow. Counters tend to be tight and apertures are partially closed, while terminals are crisp and angled rather than rounded. The overall rhythm is compact and forceful, with slightly irregular widths across glyphs and prominent, graphic numerals.
Best suited to display applications where impact and motion are priorities: headlines, posters, sports and automotive branding, packaging callouts, and event promotions. It can also work for short editorial display lines when you want a dramatic, high-energy voice, but it is less appropriate for long-form reading at small sizes due to the tight counters and intricate internal cuts.
The tone is fast and aggressive, evoking speed lettering, motorsport graphics, and bold 1980s/1990s display typography. The sharp cut-ins add a technical, weaponized edge that reads as competitive and attention-grabbing rather than neutral or calm.
Designed to deliver maximum punch with a sense of velocity, using steep slant, extreme contrast, and distinctive cut-in detailing to create a memorable silhouette. The construction suggests a deliberate balance between geometric sans forms and stylized, aerodynamic modifications for branding-forward typography.
At larger sizes the thin slices and internal cuts become a defining texture, giving headlines a distinctive striped highlight. In dense settings those fine cuts can visually fill in, so spacing and size will strongly affect legibility and the perceived contrast.
