A sharply faceted sans with an overall forward slant and thick, uniform strokes. Curves are consistently replaced by planar cuts and chamfered corners, giving rounds like O and 0 an octagonal feel and producing crisp terminals throughout. Counters are generally tight and geometric, with straight-sided bowls and wedge-like joins that create a busy, mechanical texture in text. Proportions stay fairly compact with a steady rhythm, while the faceting introduces small step changes that read clearly at display sizes.
Best suited to display applications such as sports and esports identities, event posters, product marks, and punchy packaging headlines. The strong angular texture also works for UI titles, badges, and short technical labels where a rugged, speed-forward look is more important than long-form reading comfort.
The face conveys speed and impact through its slant, heavy mass, and hard-edged geometry. Its cut, polygonal construction suggests machinery, competition, and arcade-era tech, giving headlines an assertive, high-energy tone.
The design appears intended to deliver a fast, hard-edged sans voice by translating traditional italic forms into a consistent system of planar facets. It prioritizes impact and stylistic coherence—especially in capitals and numerals—over softness or calligraphic nuance.
Uppercase forms emphasize squared-off geometry and clipped diagonals, while the lowercase keeps the same faceted logic and adds a slightly more irregular, hand-cut feel in places. Numerals follow the same octagonal construction and look suited to scoring, labeling, or technical readouts where angular styling is desirable.
