A heavy, oblique sans with angular, faceted construction and consistent chamfered corners where curves would normally appear. Strokes are monolinear and dense, producing tight counters and a compact, blocky silhouette. The uppercase has a squared, engineered feel with clipped terminals and polygonal bowls, while the lowercase follows a similar geometric logic with simplified forms and short, sturdy arms. Numerals echo the same cut-corner geometry, creating a cohesive, hard-edged rhythm across the set.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, esports or sports identities, event graphics, and bold logo wordmarks. It can also work for packaging callouts or UI titling where a sharp, technical voice is desired, rather than for long-form reading.
The overall tone is fast, tough, and mechanical—more like fabricated signage or performance branding than editorial typography. Its sharp facets and forward slant communicate motion and impact, lending a competitive, high-intensity character.
The letterforms appear designed to translate a hard-surface, machined aesthetic into a compact slanted display face. By replacing curves with planar cuts and keeping weight uniform, it aims for strong presence, clear directionality, and a distinctive, high-energy texture in large text.
The diagonal stress and frequent corner cuts create strong directional flow in text, but also amplify texture and density, especially at smaller sizes. The design reads best when given room to breathe, where its polygonal details and distinctive silhouettes can stay crisp.
