A heavy oblique slab serif with compact proportions, squared terminals, and brisk forward motion. Strokes stay mostly uniform, but many joins and corners are subtly chamfered or notched, creating crisp, engineered edges and a slightly stenciled feel without breaking continuity. Counters are tight and often squarish, with rounded outer curves kept firm by flat cuts; the overall rhythm is dense and punchy, with strong horizontal slabs and confident verticals. Figures and capitals maintain the same angular, blocky logic, producing a consistent, high-impact texture in text.
Best suited to headlines, logos, and branding that need speed and impact—especially for sports, motorsport, and industrial or tech-adjacent identities. It also works well on posters, packaging, and apparel graphics where dense, angular letterforms help carry a strong visual voice.
The tone is fast, tough, and performance-driven, evoking racing graphics, athletic branding, and late-20th-century display typography. Its squared slabs and clipped corners add a utilitarian, industrial flavor while the slant keeps it dynamic and energetic.
The likely intention is a bold, slanted slab designed for display settings, combining squared, sturdy serifs with clipped detailing to increase snap and personality while maintaining solid readability at larger sizes.
The design emphasizes bold silhouettes and hard corners over delicate detail, so letterforms read best at medium-to-large sizes where the notches and squared terminals remain clear. The forward slant and tight spacing in the sample create a strong horizontal pull, giving headlines a compact, streamlined presence.
