A slanted sans-serif with geometric construction and clean, low-contrast strokes. Letterforms are defined by crisp, broken segments with consistent stencil bridges placed through bowls and joins, producing clear internal gaps without disrupting overall readability. Proportions lean slightly extended with compact curves and sharp terminals, creating a tight, forward-leaning rhythm. Numerals follow the same segmented logic, with rounded forms split by straight, uniform breaks.
Best suited to display use where the segmented stencil detailing can be appreciated: posters, headlines, logos, product branding, and apparel graphics. It can also work for short UI labels or interface accents in tech, industrial, or gaming contexts, while long passages may feel visually busy due to the repeated internal breaks.
The overall tone feels engineered and purposeful, combining a modern, speed-oriented slant with an industrial stencil sensibility. The repeated bridges add a coded, tactical character that reads as contemporary and utilitarian rather than decorative.
Designed to merge a fast, italicized sans structure with unmistakable stencil breaks, creating a recognizable voice for modern, technical, or action-oriented communication. The consistent bridges suggest an emphasis on manufacturing/marking cues while preserving a streamlined reading flow.
Stencil breaks are frequent but systematic, giving the face a distinctive texture in continuous text. The italic angle is strong enough to convey motion, and the consistent stroke weight helps maintain clarity despite the internal cutouts.
