A heavy, right-slanted sans with uniform stroke weight and a clearly fixed character width. The forms favor broad, open bowls and counters, with blunt, slightly squared terminals and minimal modulation. Curves are smooth but not delicate, giving letters like C, G, O, and S a sturdy, engineered feel, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y, Z) read crisp and assertive. Numerals are large and steady, matching the overall blocky, high-impact texture.
Best suited to contexts that benefit from fixed-width alignment and high visual emphasis, such as code snippets, terminal-style UI labels, tables, and technical readouts. Its weight and slant also make it effective for bold headlines, sports or industrial branding moments, and short promotional copy where impact matters more than long-form comfort.
The overall tone feels utilitarian and energetic—like labeling on equipment, dashboards, or a fast-moving interface. The consistent spacing and strong slant add momentum, while the heavy strokes keep it confident and attention-grabbing.
Designed to combine the disciplined alignment of a fixed-width font with the urgency and emphasis of a strong oblique style. The intent appears to be a modern, functional face that reads quickly, holds up under heavy weight, and stays consistent in structured layouts.
The fixed-width fit creates a regular, grid-like cadence that stays even across mixed-case text and numerals. Lowercase shapes remain straightforward and workmanlike, with single-storey constructions where expected and a clear, legible italic structure that maintains coherence at display sizes.
