An angular, forward-slanted sans with monoline strokes and frequent chamfered corners. Many curves are faceted into octagonal-like turns, and several glyphs incorporate deliberate breaks or cut-ins that suggest a stencil or segmented construction. Counters are compact and geometric, terminals are typically sheared, and diagonals feel crisp and mechanical. Overall spacing and widths vary noticeably across letters, giving the text a dynamic, slightly compressed rhythm in places while keeping a consistent stroke presence.
Best suited to display roles where its angular construction and stencil cuts can be appreciated—headlines, posters, brand marks, team or event graphics, product packaging, and UI moments that aim for a tech or industrial vibe. It can work for short bursts of copy, but the busy internal cut geometry is likely to be more effective at medium-to-large sizes than in long-form reading.
The face conveys a technical, industrial tone with a rugged, utilitarian edge. Its sharp facets and stencil-like interruptions read as tactical and engineered, evoking machinery labeling, motorsport graphics, or sci‑fi interface typography rather than everyday editorial text.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, engineered look by combining a slanted sans skeleton with faceted geometry and purposeful cutouts. The consistent chamfers and segmented strokes suggest a desire for a distinctive, hard-edged identity that remains legible while signaling speed and toughness.
In continuous text the repeated notches and broken strokes create strong texture and distinctive word shapes, but the segmented details can become visually busy at smaller sizes. The italic slant increases momentum and makes headings feel faster and more aggressive.
