A slanted, geometric outline face built from angular, chamfered strokes and squared curves, with a consistent single-line contour that creates a hollow interior. Corners are frequently clipped into octagonal facets, giving round letters like O, C, and G a mechanical, panel-like geometry rather than true curves. The forms are relatively extended with generous horizontal reach, and the lowercase closely echoes the uppercase construction, reinforcing a uniform, engineered rhythm. Numerals follow the same segmented, beveled logic, maintaining consistent outline thickness and tight internal counters.
Best suited for display settings where the outline styling can be appreciated: esports and sports branding, game titles and UI callouts, tech or automotive posters, packaging accents, and short, punchy headlines. It’s particularly effective when paired with a solid sans for body copy and used at larger sizes to keep the hollow counters clear.
The overall tone reads as futuristic and performance-oriented, evoking motorsport decals, arcade UI, and sci‑fi instrumentation. Its italic slant and crisp facets add a sense of speed and precision, while the hollow outline feel suggests technical drafting and neon-like display styling.
The design intention appears to be a fast, modern display outline with a consistent beveled geometry, optimized for impactful branding and on-screen title work rather than traditional text typography.
The outline-only construction means color and background strongly affect perceived weight; it will appear bolder when set large or over high-contrast fields. The angular shaping stays consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, giving it a cohesive, logo-ready voice but a more specialized texture for long passages.
