A heavy, right-slanted sans with tightly condensed proportions and sharply cut, angular forms. Strokes are largely monolinear, but terminals and joins are aggressively chamfered, producing a faceted, wedge-like silhouette. Counters are compact and often rectangular, with a generally squared-off construction across rounds like O, C, and G. The overall rhythm is punchy and mechanical, with short crossbars, abrupt corners, and a forward-leaning stance that emphasizes motion.
Best suited to short, high-visibility settings such as sports and esports branding, racing-themed graphics, game titles, poster headlines, and punchy packaging callouts. It can also work for UI or streamer overlays when used sparingly and at sizes that preserve interior clarity.
The tone is fast, loud, and high-impact, evoking motorsport graphics, arcade aesthetics, and sci‑fi display lettering. Its sharp angles and slanted posture communicate urgency and energy rather than warmth or neutrality.
The letterforms appear designed to maximize impact and a sense of speed through condensed width, strong slant, and angular cuts. The consistent chamfered detailing suggests an intention to feel engineered and modern, prioritizing display presence over long-form readability.
The design maintains a consistent geometric logic across upper- and lowercase, with lowercase shapes feeling more like scaled, stylized caps than traditional text forms. Numerals follow the same chiseled language, reading best at larger sizes where the tight apertures and compact counters have room to breathe.
