This typeface is built from sharp, planar strokes that replace curves with faceted angles, creating a chiseled silhouette across letters and numerals. The forms are compact and tightly drawn, with a consistent rightward slant and a jagged, broken-line rhythm that suggests hand-cut geometry rather than smooth construction. Strokes stay visually even, while corners and joins do most of the expressive work—producing pointed terminals, polygonal bowls, and zigzag-like diagonals that keep counters open but irregular. Overall spacing reads on the tight side, reinforcing a dense, forward-leaning texture in text.
Best suited for display settings where personality and angular energy are an asset—posters, headlines, logos, apparel graphics, and music or event promotion. It can work for short bursts of text (taglines, pull quotes) but will feel visually busy in long-form reading due to the constantly faceted edges.
The tone is bold and aggressive without feeling heavy, projecting speed, grit, and a slightly rebellious edge. Its angular cadence evokes street, skate, or metal-adjacent aesthetics while remaining legible enough to function as a stylized display voice.
The design appears intended to translate an italic, sans structure into a hard-edged, polygonal language—prioritizing motion and impact over smoothness. By standardizing faceted corners and pointed terminals across the set, it aims to deliver a cohesive, attention-grabbing voice for contemporary, high-intensity visual themes.
Round characters like O/Q and numerals such as 0/8/9 appear as multi-sided polygons, which gives the entire set a cohesive ‘cut from facets’ logic. Diagonal-heavy letters (K, V, W, X, Y) become especially expressive, and the numerals share the same sharp, segmented construction for consistent pairing in headings.
