A heavy, block-built sans with sharply faceted corners that replace curves with straight cuts, producing an octagonal, machined silhouette. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, and joins are hard and abrupt, emphasizing planar geometry. Counters are generally small and rectangular, with tight apertures and squared terminals; round letters like O/C/G read as clipped polygons. The lowercase is similarly constructed, with sturdy verticals and short, angular bowls, giving the set a compact, poster-ready rhythm.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as headlines, posters, sports and team marks, apparel graphics, and packaging that benefits from a bold, angular voice. It holds up well when set large, where the faceted details and tight counters read as intentional structure rather than texture.
The faceted construction and dense black color give the typeface a forceful, no-nonsense tone that feels engineered and impact-driven. Its angular cuts suggest rugged utility and competitive energy, leaning toward sporty and industrial moods rather than friendly or delicate expression.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual weight and immediate recognition through a consistent system of chamfered corners and polygonal curves. It prioritizes solidity and graphic punch, evoking cut metal or varsity-style block lettering with a modern, faceted treatment.
Diagonal facets recur across many glyphs, creating a consistent "chamfered" motif that helps unify the alphabet. The numerals follow the same geometry, with broad forms and clipped corners that maintain strong presence in display sizes.
