A sharply italic serif with a chiseled, angular construction and strong diagonal momentum. Strokes are largely even in thickness, while pointed wedge-like terminals and small triangular serifs punctuate the ends, giving forms a cut-metal feel. Counters tend toward squared and trapezoidal shapes, and curves are frequently faceted into straight segments. The rhythm is compact and forward-leaning, with crisp corners, short ascenders/descenders, and a tightly engineered overall texture that stays consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to display settings where its angular details can be appreciated: headlines, posters, event graphics, and logo/wordmark work. It also fits sports branding and gaming or tech-leaning titles where a sense of speed and impact is desired. For longer passages, it works most effectively in short bursts—pull quotes, labels, or compact UI headers—rather than dense text blocks.
The font reads fast and assertive, combining a retro display energy with a mechanical, speed-driven attitude. Its spiky terminals and oblique stance suggest motion, competition, and performance, while the faceted geometry adds a slightly futuristic, technical edge.
The design appears intended to blend classic serif cues with an italic, speed-focused geometry, using wedge terminals and faceted shapes to project impact and modernity. It prioritizes a distinctive silhouette and kinetic rhythm over quiet neutrality, aiming for high visibility in attention-driven typography.
Diagonal strokes in letters like A, K, V, W, and Y dominate the silhouette, reinforcing the slanted, energetic cadence. Numerals follow the same faceted logic with squared bowls and angled joins, helping mixed alphanumeric settings maintain a uniform, purposeful tone. At smaller sizes, the sharp corners and tight inner spaces may benefit from generous tracking and clear contrast with the background.
