A forceful, right-leaning slab serif with tightly controlled geometry and squared, chamfered corners throughout. Strokes are sturdy with noticeable internal contrast and crisp, flat terminals; the slabs read as blocky wedges that lock into the baseline and cap line. Counters tend toward rectangular and angular shapes, and many joins are sharply cut, giving the alphabet a machined, stencil-like cleanness without actual breaks. Proportions are compact with firm horizontals and a consistent forward slant that adds speed while preserving clear letter shapes in both uppercase and lowercase.
Best suited for display settings where punch and speed are desirable: sports branding, team and event identities, posters, titles, packaging callouts, and logo wordmarks. It also works well for short UI labels, badges, and numbering when a strong, engineered look is needed, but is likely too forceful for extended body text.
The overall tone is sporty and assertive, with a retro industrial flavor reminiscent of racing, team marks, and action-oriented display typography. Its angular cuts and slanted posture project motion and impact, making the voice feel confident, loud, and performance-driven.
The design appears intended to deliver a fast, high-impact slab serif voice by combining a strong italic slant with squared construction and crisp, chamfered detailing. It balances legibility with attitude, aiming for a bold, competitive presence that reads immediately at large sizes.
Uppercase forms emphasize straight-sided bowls and squared apertures, while lowercase keeps the same angular rhythm, producing a cohesive texture in words. Numerals match the alphabet’s blocky, forward-leaning construction and hold up well as standalone figures, especially in short strings like scores or identifiers.
