A heavy, blocky sans with faceted geometry that replaces curves with planar cuts and chamfered corners. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, and many bowls and counters resolve into polygonal shapes (notably in O/0 and related forms). The letterforms show intentionally uneven angles and slightly jittery alignment, creating a rough-cut rhythm rather than mechanical precision. Proportions lean compact in many uppercase shapes while the lowercase maintains a high x-height and stout, simplified construction for strong presence at display sizes.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as posters, headlines, logos, and punchy packaging where its faceted silhouettes can read clearly. It also fits game interfaces, event graphics, and merchandise that benefit from a loud, angular voice. For longer text, it works more as an accent or pull-quote style than as a primary reading face.
The overall tone feels rugged and assertive, like lettering cut from sheet metal or stamped into a surface. Its sharp facets and irregularities add a playful, slightly chaotic energy that reads as bold, arcade-like, and attention-seeking. The texture suggests a handcrafted or distressed attitude without relying on actual grunge noise.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact through angular simplification and a deliberately rough, cut-from-a-block feel. By building curves from facets and embracing irregular joins, it aims to stand out with a distinctive, hard-edged texture that signals energy and grit rather than neutrality.
Diagonal joins and notched terminals are a recurring motif, producing a distinctly “carved” silhouette in words. Counters tend to be small and angular, increasing density and impact but also making long passages feel tight. The numeral set follows the same polygonal logic, with the 0 and 8 particularly emblematic of the faceted construction.
