A sharply angular, extended sans with a pronounced forward slant and heavy, monolinear strokes. Counters are mostly rectangular and tightly enclosed, with frequent diagonal shears that create a fast, aerodynamic silhouette. Many glyphs feature deliberate cut-ins and notched terminals—especially on horizontals and bowls—giving a quasi-stencil, segmented feel without breaking overall solidity. The rhythm is compact and mechanical, with squared curves, firm corners, and consistent stroke thickness that keeps the texture dense and punchy in display sizes.
Best suited to short, attention-grabbing settings such as headlines, event posters, esports or racing identities, product marks, and UI title treatments in games. It will be most effective at medium-to-large sizes where the internal cut details and squared counters remain clear.
The overall tone reads high-speed and high-impact, evoking motorsport graphics, arcade sci-fi, and tech branding. Its sharp geometry and purposeful gaps add a tactical, industrial edge, while the forward lean reinforces motion and urgency.
The font appears designed to deliver a sense of speed and engineered precision through slanted, extended proportions and angular, cut-in detailing. The construction prioritizes strong silhouettes and a distinctive techno-sport voice over neutrality, aiming for immediate visual impact in display typography.
The design leans heavily on diagonal joins and chamfered corners, producing distinctive silhouettes for letters like A, S, and Z and squared counters in forms like O and Q. Numerals mirror the same segmented construction, maintaining a cohesive, engineered look across the set.
