A sharply faceted, forward-leaning sans with planar strokes that replace curves with angled segments and clipped corners. Stems keep a generally uniform thickness, while joins and terminals frequently break into hard bevels, creating a chiseled silhouette. The rhythm is lively and slightly irregular, with variable character widths and a hand-made feel despite the geometric construction. Counters tend to be polygonal, and many glyphs show deliberate angular kinks that emphasize motion and directionality.
Best suited to display settings where its angular texture can be appreciated—headlines, posters, titling, and branding marks. It can also work for game/UI labels, sci‑fi or industrial packaging, and event graphics where a sharp, fast aesthetic is desired; for extended small-size reading it may feel visually busy.
The overall tone feels energetic and edgy, combining a tech-industrial sharpness with a sketchy, streetwise attitude. Its italic slant and fractured geometry give it a sense of speed and tension, reading as futuristic, game-like, and slightly rebellious rather than neutral or corporate.
The design appears intended to evoke speed and precision through a consistent slant and faceted construction, translating sans-serif forms into a polygonal, cut-metal vocabulary. It aims for strong personality and instant impact rather than quiet neutrality, using irregular, hand-drawn energy to keep the geometry from feeling sterile.
The faceting is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, giving the set a cohesive "cut from the same material" look. In longer text the angularity becomes a texture, and the occasional asymmetry and stroke breaks contribute to a purposeful, hand-crafted roughness.
