A heavy, all-caps-friendly sans built from planar facets rather than true curves. Strokes are thick and consistently weighted, with chamfered corners and clipped terminals that create an octagonal, cut-metal silhouette across rounds and diagonals. Counters are tight and often rectangular, and the overall spacing feels sturdy and compact, producing a dense, poster-like texture in text. Lowercase follows the same geometric, faceted construction with a tall x-height and simplified details for maximum impact.
Best suited to display settings where bold, angular letterforms are meant to carry the composition—headlines, posters, apparel graphics, sports identities, event promotions, and punchy packaging. It can work for short UI labels or badges when you want a rugged, mechanical voice, but the dense texture and tight counters favor larger sizes.
The face reads tough and utilitarian, with a confident, no-nonsense tone. Its sharp, machined geometry suggests sport, industry, and action-oriented branding, while the faceting also nods to retro athletic and arcade-era lettering.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through faceted geometry—replacing curves with crisp planes to create a cut, engineered look that stays consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
Round letters (like O/C/G) resolve into multi-sided forms with small corner cuts, and diagonals are kept broad to avoid fragility at display sizes. Numerals match the same chiseled construction, maintaining uniform visual weight for scoreboard-like emphasis.
