A tightly condensed, heavy sans with angular, faceted construction that replaces most curves with straight planes and crisp corners. Strokes read largely monolinear, with broad, rectangular counters and frequent flat terminals that emphasize a poster-like solidity. The lowercase is compact with a tall x-height and short extenders, keeping word shapes dense and vertical. Numerals and caps share the same squared, chiseled rhythm, producing a consistent, hard-edged texture across lines.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and impactful branding where compact width and strong vertical rhythm help fit more characters into limited space. It also works well for packaging, labels, and sports or event graphics that benefit from an aggressive, engineered aesthetic.
The overall tone is forceful and utilitarian, with an industrial, street-sign directness. Its sharp planar cuts and compressed proportions give it a no-nonsense, attention-grabbing presence that can feel both retro and modern depending on context.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a condensed footprint, using faceted geometry to create a distinctive, industrial voice while maintaining simple sans structure and consistent stroke weight for clarity at display sizes.
The faceting creates distinctive corner notches and flattened curves in letters like S, C, G, and O, which contributes to a rugged, machined look. The condensed width and heavy mass favor short headlines and punchy phrasing over relaxed, long-form reading.
