A heavy, oblique sans with sharply sculpted stroke modulation and dramatic cut-ins that create bright internal wedges and notches. The letterforms are broad and compact at once, with squared shoulders, angled terminals, and tight apertures that emphasize a powerful silhouette. Contrast is expressed through thick stems against thin connecting strokes and tapered joins, giving a chiseled, machined feel rather than a smooth geometric one. Round characters (O, Q, 0, 8, 9) read as sturdy ovals with narrow interior space and distinctive internal slashes, while diagonals in A, N, V, W, X are steep and forceful. Lowercase follows the same blocky logic with simple, sturdy bowls and a clean, single-storey construction where applicable, keeping the texture dense and uniform in paragraphs.
This font is well-suited to headlines, posters, and title treatments where strong slant and sculpted contrast can carry a message from a distance. It can also work for sports branding, event graphics, packaging, and short callouts where a dense, aggressive typographic texture is desirable.
The overall tone is bold and kinetic, with a forward-leaning, high-impact voice that feels engineered for speed and emphasis. The sharp internal cuts and oblique stance add a dramatic, poster-like energy that reads as retro-futurist and athletic at the same time.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through mass, slant, and dramatic internal carving, producing a distinctive, high-energy texture. Its forms prioritize presence and momentum over openness, aiming for a bold display voice that feels mechanical and fast.
In text settings the dense color and tight counters push it toward display use, while the consistent rhythm and simple constructions help maintain clarity at larger sizes. Numerals match the caps in weight and attitude, with especially distinctive 2, 3, 5, and 9 forms that echo the font’s wedge-like internal cuts.
