An angular italic slab serif with monoline strokes and a distinctly faceted construction. Curves are largely replaced by straight segments, producing octagonal bowls and corners throughout, while terminals and serifs read as square-cut, unbracketed slabs that stay crisp at joins. Proportions feel slightly condensed and tall, with a steady rhythm and consistent stroke weight; the slant adds forward motion without introducing calligraphic contrast. Counters are open and geometric, and the overall texture on the line is clean, even, and engineered.
Best suited to display settings where its angular slabs and faceted curves can be appreciated—headlines, posters, labels, and brand marks. It can also work for short technical or sci‑fi themed text blocks, but its strong geometry is most effective at larger sizes.
The design conveys a technical, schematic tone—part typewriter-meets-drafting, part retro-futurist signage. Its forward slant and sharp geometry give it a fast, purposeful feel that can read sporty or industrial depending on context.
The font appears designed to translate a geometric, engineered aesthetic into an italic slab serif, prioritizing sharp edges, consistent stroke logic, and a sense of forward motion. The constructed forms suggest an intent to evoke mechanical precision and retro-industrial character while staying legible in mixed-case use.
The faceting is especially prominent in rounded forms and numerals, creating a distinctive “cut metal” silhouette. The lowercase maintains the same constructed logic as the caps, helping mixed-case text look uniform and controlled rather than playful.
