A heavy, forward-slanted sans with sharply chamfered corners and a distinctly geometric, cut-out construction. Strokes are thick and largely uniform, with tight internal spaces and frequent triangular notches that create a machined, stencil-like rhythm. Curves are reduced to faceted arcs (notably in C/G/O/Q), while diagonals and horizontals dominate, giving the alphabet a compact, high-impact texture. Terminals are crisp and abrupt, and many forms lean on asymmetrical cuts and inset counters for a dynamic, engineered look.
Best suited to display use where impact and speed are desired: headlines, posters, team or event branding, esports identities, and game/interface elements. It performs especially well in short phrases, logos, and titling where its angular detailing can remain clear.
The overall tone is fast, forceful, and high-energy—evoking motorsport graphics, sci‑fi interfaces, and action-oriented branding. The sharp facets and forward motion read as competitive and tactical, with a slightly game-like, arcade intensity.
The design appears intended to project motion and toughness through a faceted, industrial geometry—prioritizing punchy silhouette and a techno-mechanical voice over neutral readability. Its cut corners and inset counters suggest a deliberate “machined” feel aimed at modern, performance-driven applications.
The figure set follows the same angular logic, with squared bowls and slashed joins that reinforce the technical aesthetic. In text, the dense counters and hard corners create strong headline presence and a consistent, gritty cadence, while very tight apertures can make small sizes feel busy.
