A slanted, monolinear sans built from crisp, planar segments rather than smooth curves. Strokes keep a largely even thickness while corners break into short facets, creating octagonal bowls and sharply cut terminals. The forms are compact and upright in structure despite the overall slant, with squared-off joins and a consistent, mechanical rhythm across letters and numerals. Counters tend to be polygonal and slightly condensed, giving the glyphs a hard, machined silhouette.
Best suited to display applications where its angular texture can be appreciated: headlines, short calls to action, posters, and identity work. It can also work for packaging, sports/tech branding, and interface accents where a hard-edged, kinetic voice is desired, while long-form reading may feel intense due to the persistent faceting and slant.
The faceted construction and forward lean convey speed and a technical, slightly aggressive tone. Its sharp edges read as modern and synthetic, evoking digital interfaces, industrial labeling, and sci‑fi aesthetics rather than warm or traditional typography.
The design appears intended to translate an italic sans into a faceted, geometric system, replacing curves with controlled planar breaks for a more engineered look. It prioritizes a distinctive silhouette and energetic texture, aiming for strong impact at medium to large sizes.
Diagonal strokes and angled terminals are used widely, helping maintain a cohesive texture in text. Numerals follow the same polygonal logic, with angular bowls and open, sharply defined interior spaces that keep the set visually consistent.
