An oblique, angular slab-serif with a distinctly squared construction and crisp, flat terminals. Strokes keep a largely even thickness, with sharp joins and diagonal cuts that give counters and apertures a faceted, engineered feel. The serifs read as strong, blocky slabs that often extend horizontally, reinforcing a low, forward-leaning stance. Letterforms mix geometric straight-sided bowls with slightly tightened openings, producing a brisk rhythm and a mechanical, display-driven texture in text.
Best suited for short-form display use where its angular slabs and oblique stance can deliver impact—headlines, posters, logotypes, team or motorsport-style graphics, and tech-oriented packaging. It can also work for UI labels or titling when a sharp, industrial voice is desired, but its dense texture is more effective at larger sizes than in long passages.
The overall tone feels fast, technical, and assertive—suggesting speed, machinery, and precision. Its hard corners and forward slant convey motion and competitiveness, while the squared details add a retro-digital edge reminiscent of arcade, motorsport, or industrial labeling.
The design appears intended to merge slab-serif presence with a squared, geometric construction and a forward-leaning posture, prioritizing a sense of speed and engineered clarity. Its consistent stroke treatment and modular angles suggest a deliberate, systemized approach aimed at bold, contemporary display applications with a retro-tech flavor.
In running text the repeated diagonals and square counters create a patterned, almost stencil-like cadence, with especially strong horizontal emphasis from the slab feet and crossbars. Numerals and capitals maintain the same faceted logic, helping the set feel cohesive and deliberately engineered rather than calligraphic.
