A condensed, oblique sans with heavy, monoline strokes and a strongly angular, faceted construction. Terminals and corners are cut with diagonal planes, creating a chiseled silhouette and crisp internal counters. The rhythm is compact and vertical, with tight apertures and a consistent forward slant that keeps text moving. Numerals and capitals share the same hard-edged geometry, producing a uniform, poster-ready texture at larger sizes.
Best suited to headlines, display lines, and short bursts of text where its condensed width and sharp facets can read clearly. It works well for sports branding, action/event posters, product packaging, and bold logo wordmarks that want a fast, industrial edge.
The overall tone is forceful and kinetic, combining a sporty, “speed” sensibility with an industrial, machined feel. Its sharp cuts and forward lean read as assertive and high-energy, leaning toward action-oriented and competitive branding.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum impact in limited horizontal space, pairing a strong forward slant with angular, beveled shapes to suggest speed and strength. Its consistent, hard-edged system prioritizes punchy display readability and a distinctive, machined personality.
The design relies on straight segments and beveled joins rather than curves, which emphasizes a stenciled/metal-cut impression. In paragraphs, the dense letterspacing and narrow forms create a dark, compact color; it benefits from generous tracking and larger sizes where the angular details remain distinct.
