A heavy, condensed sans with a strong forward slant and tightly packed proportions. Letterforms are built from straight strokes and sharp corners with faceted, chamfer-like cuts, giving many terminals a clipped, wedge profile. Counters are small and geometric, and the overall rhythm is compact and punchy, with a slightly mechanical, stencil-adjacent feel created by notched joins and abrupt interior angles. Numerals and capitals match the same angular construction, maintaining a consistent, high-impact silhouette across the set.
Best suited to display settings such as sports identities, racing or action-themed graphics, game UI/titles, posters, and packaging where bold, condensed lettering helps conserve space while still commanding attention. It works particularly well for short headlines, team names, and logo-like wordmarks that benefit from a fast, aggressive slant.
The tone is forceful and kinetic, reading as speed-driven and combative rather than neutral. Its sharp cuts and slanted stance evoke motorsport, arcade/action titling, and hard-edged branding where intensity and momentum are the goal.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a compact width, using angular, cut-in terminals and a strong slant to suggest speed and toughness. Its consistent faceted construction prioritizes a distinctive, high-energy personality for titling and branding applications.
In the sample text, the dense shapes and sharp interior joins create a dark color on the line, emphasizing impact over quiet readability. The design’s distinctive notches and chamfers become more pronounced at larger sizes, where the faceted construction reads as a deliberate visual motif.
