An italicized slab serif with sharply squared terminals and blocky, stepped contours that read like pixel cuts along diagonals. Strokes are generally monolinear with modest contrast, and the slanted construction is reinforced by flat, rectangular serifs and notched joins that create a segmented rhythm. Counters are compact and geometric, with several glyphs showing intentional breaks or offsets that make curves feel faceted rather than smooth. Overall proportions stay fairly narrow and upright in structure despite the strong slant, producing a crisp, mechanical texture in text.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and short bursts of copy where its angular slab forms and stepped details can be appreciated. It also fits tech and gaming contexts—UI labels, titles, and branding—where a retro-digital or industrial tone is desired.
The font projects a retro-digital, engineered attitude—fast, angular, and slightly aggressive. Its cut-and-stepped detailing evokes early computer graphics, arcade or sci‑fi interfaces, and industrial labeling, giving copy a purposeful, technical edge.
The design appears intended to merge slab-serif structure with square, digitally inflected detailing, using an italic slant and segmented diagonals to imply speed and machinery. It prioritizes a distinctive, high-character texture over neutrality, aiming for strong recognition in display settings.
In running text the repeated notches and square serifs create a lively pattern that can shimmer at smaller sizes, while larger sizes emphasize the distinctive segmented diagonals and stencil-like interruptions. Numerals and capitals share the same squared, chamfered logic, contributing to a consistent, display-oriented voice.
