A heavy, right-leaning display face with compact counters and sharp, wedge-like terminals. Strokes show pronounced thick–thin behavior, with occasional hairline slashes and cut-in notches that create a “sliced” look on select letters. The silhouette is generally wide and forward-leaning, with squared shoulders and tightened apertures that keep the texture dark and continuous in lines of text. Forms favor angular joins and flattened curves, producing a brisk rhythm and a punchy, poster-ready color.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, sports or automotive branding, and bold packaging callouts. It can also work for logotypes and wordmarks where the slanted, cut-terminal styling can be featured at larger sizes. For extended reading or small UI text, the dense texture and sharp detailing may feel visually busy.
The overall tone is fast and forceful, suggesting motion, impact, and a competitive edge. Its slanted stance and sharp incisions give it a techy, engineered feel, while the high drama in contrast adds a hint of retro headline flair. It reads as confident and attention-seeking rather than quiet or literary.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum emphasis with a sense of speed and mechanical sharpness. By combining compact, wide-leaning forms with dramatic contrast and occasional slashed details, it aims to create a distinctive display voice that stands out quickly in branding and promotional typography.
Several capitals incorporate distinctive hairline diagonals (notably in characters like A, M, N, V, W, X, Y), which can become a recognizable brand motif but may also draw attention in long passages. Numerals are similarly hefty and slanted, matching the tight, dark text color of the lowercase.
