A slanted, extended display face built from stacked horizontal bars that break into short segments, creating a striped, dash-driven structure. Strokes are mostly rectilinear with softened corners and occasional rounded terminals; counters are simplified and often implied by gaps rather than continuous outlines. The overall texture alternates between heavier lower portions and lighter, more fragmented upper bands, producing a strong directional rhythm. Spacing appears generous and the forms prioritize graphic impact and motion over small-size legibility.
Best suited for large-scale display settings where its striped construction and forward momentum can read clearly—headlines, event posters, automotive or sports-themed branding, game titles, and tech-forward packaging. It can also work for short UI labels or interface-like graphics when used at ample sizes and with sufficient tracking to preserve the segmented details.
The segmented striping and forward slant give the type a fast, high-energy tone associated with speed, machinery, and electronic interfaces. Its repeating bars read like scanlines or motion streaks, lending a synthetic, performance-oriented feel. The result is assertive and sporty rather than neutral.
The design appears intended to evoke speed and digital motion by translating letterforms into horizontal dash bands, combining an italicized stance with a mechanical, scanline-like texture. It prioritizes a cohesive visual effect across the set—modular segmentation, simplified counters, and a strong left-to-right drive—aimed at impactful, futuristic display typography.
The dash pattern is consistently applied across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, with some glyphs relying on distinctive breaks to separate similar shapes (for example, E/F, O/Q, and 0/8). Diagonals are suggested through stepped segment placement, and joins are minimized to keep the modular, cut-up texture intact.
