A condensed, forward-leaning sans with angular, cut-in terminals and a distinctly geometric construction. Strokes are heavy and relatively even, with squared counters and occasional wedge-like notches that create a chiseled silhouette. The letterforms show purposeful irregularities in width and edge treatment, producing a slightly restless rhythm while maintaining clear, consistent structure across capitals, lowercase, and numerals.
This face works best at display sizes where the angular cuts and tight proportions can read clearly—headlines, posters, packaging callouts, and logo/wordmark work. It also fits energetic branding contexts such as sports, automotive, and game or tech interfaces where a sharp, forward-moving voice is desirable.
The overall tone is energetic and punchy, with a fast, sporty slant and a slightly retro display flavor. Its sharp corners and carved details give it an edgy, mechanical attitude that reads as bold and attention-seeking rather than neutral or text-oriented.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in limited horizontal space, using a slanted stance and carved geometry to project speed and aggression. Its controlled consistency suggests a deliberate display font built for strong branding and title treatments rather than long-form reading.
Capitals are tall and compact, and the lowercase keeps a compact profile that reinforces the condensed, headline-focused feel. Numerals follow the same angular logic, staying blocky and upright in construction while retaining the forward motion of the rest of the set.
