A heavy, slanted sans with sharp, planar faceting that turns most curves into clipped corners. Strokes stay largely even in thickness, producing a dense, high-impact color on the page, while the narrow proportions keep words compact. Terminals are square and abruptly cut, with consistent chamfering that creates a machined, stencil-like rhythm. Counters are tight and geometric, and the overall silhouette emphasizes straight segments and angled joins over roundness.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, team or event branding, and product packaging where the angular construction can be a visual hook. It can also work for logos, badges, and UI labels in action-oriented or industrial themes, especially at medium to large sizes where the tight counters remain clear.
The letterforms project speed and toughness, with a performance-driven feel reminiscent of motorsport graphics and industrial labeling. Its hard corners and compressed stance read assertive and utilitarian, delivering a bold, no-nonsense tone with a retro display flavor.
The design appears intended to merge a bold italic stance with a faceted, machined geometry, prioritizing a fast, aggressive silhouette over softness or neutrality. The consistent chamfered corners suggest a deliberate system to keep the alphabet cohesive and immediately recognizable in display use.
The numerals and capitals share the same clipped-corner construction, helping headings look uniform and forceful. The slant is strong enough to imply motion, but the faceting keeps it rigid and engineered rather than flowing.
