A heavy, forward-leaning display face built from dense, faceted silhouettes. Strokes are essentially monolinear but shaped with sharp, wedge-like cuts and abrupt terminals that create a jagged rhythm. Counters and apertures are largely collapsed, so letters read as solid blocks punctuated by small notches and occasional slits. The alphabet shows intentionally irregular internal shaping and shifting stroke widths from letter to letter, producing a rough, mechanical texture in words while keeping a consistent rightward slant and chunky proportions.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, title cards, logos, and branding that benefits from a tough, high-energy look. It will be most effective at medium-to-large sizes where the angular cuts and notches can be clearly seen and the dense letterforms become an intentional texture.
The overall tone is forceful and kinetic, with a hard-edged, engineered feel. Its chiseled forms and black-mass presence suggest speed, impact, and a slightly abrasive, dystopian attitude rather than refinement or softness.
The design appears intended to maximize visual impact through solid mass and aggressive angular detailing, creating an italicized sense of motion and a rugged, machine-cut character. By minimizing interior openings and relying on faceted edges, it emphasizes silhouette recognition and dramatic texture over readability at small sizes.
In continuous text, the tight interior spaces and sharp joins can cause neighboring shapes to visually fuse, increasing the sense of density. Diagonal cuts and corner notches act like built-in highlights, helping word shapes stay recognizable despite the largely filled-in interiors.
