A heavy, oblique sans built from sharp, planar facets instead of smooth curves. Letterforms are wide and tightly constructed, with cut corners, hard terminals, and small counters that read as punched-out shapes. Strokes maintain a consistent thickness and lean forward with a strong rightward slant, creating a continuous sense of motion. Geometry stays squared and mechanical across caps, lowercase, and numerals, with a tall lowercase structure that keeps bowls and apertures compact but legible at display sizes.
Best suited for display typography such as headlines, posters, and bold callouts where immediacy and impact are the goal. It also fits sports branding, event graphics, product packaging, and logo wordmarks that benefit from a fast, aggressive, engineered look.
The overall tone is fast, forceful, and high-impact, with a competitive, performance-oriented feel. Its faceted construction and forward slant suggest speed, toughness, and a utilitarian edge, making it feel at home in athletic or action-driven contexts.
Likely designed to deliver maximum visual punch with a speed-forward stance, translating a mechanical, faceted aesthetic into a compact, high-energy display voice. The consistent, chiseled geometry prioritizes strong silhouette recognition and graphic attitude over delicate detail.
The design relies on distinctive corner notches and chamfers to define rhythm and differentiation between similar shapes, especially in rounded letters and numerals. The density and tight internal spaces favor larger point sizes and short lines where the angular detailing can remain crisp.
