A sharply angled, oblique sans with faceted curves and chiseled corners throughout. Strokes alternate between slender hairline connections and heavier vertical masses, creating a pronounced, graphic rhythm and a slightly fractured silhouette. Counters tend toward polygonal shapes, and many joins resolve into crisp points or clipped corners rather than smooth curves. The construction feels intentionally irregular in places, with occasional notch-like cut-ins and wedge terminals that emphasize speed and direction.
Best suited for display roles where its angular contrast and forward slant can be appreciated—posters, title cards, game branding, album/film graphics, and sci‑fi or tech-themed interfaces. It will be most effective at medium-to-large sizes where the thin connections and cut-in details remain clear, rather than in long passages of small body text.
The overall tone is futuristic and hard-edged, with a mechanical, weaponized energy that reads more sci‑fi than neutral. Its slanted posture and broken highlights add urgency and tension, suggesting motion, impact, and a technical-industrial attitude.
The design appears intended to deliver a high-impact, techno-industrial voice by combining oblique momentum with faceted geometry and dramatic stroke modulation. The goal is a distinctive, cinematic texture that signals speed, machinery, and futuristic styling rather than quiet neutrality.
In text, the strong diagonal emphasis produces a fast forward lean, while the alternating thick/thin pattern can create sparkle and texture at larger sizes. The most distinctive character comes from the faceting and the abrupt transitions at curves, which gives the font a cut-metal, stencil-adjacent presence without fully behaving like a stencil.
