A heavy, all-caps–leaning display sans built from hard-edged, planar cuts rather than curves. Strokes are predominantly vertical and rectangular, with corners sheared into consistent chamfers that create a faceted, machined silhouette. Counters are narrow and slot-like (notably in A, B, D, O/0), giving the face a dense, compressed interior rhythm, while joins remain squared and rigid. Lowercase echoes the same geometry with a large body and short extenders, keeping lines visually even and tightly packed.
This font is well-suited for bold headlines, posters, and short phrases where impact and a mechanical aesthetic are desired. It can work effectively in sports branding, team marks, and streetwear-style graphics, as well as packaging or labels that benefit from a rugged, industrial voice. Use generous size and spacing to preserve the narrow counters and keep words from visually clumping.
The overall tone is tough and utilitarian, evoking stamped metal, sports uniforms, and industrial signage. Its sharp facets and minimal roundness lend a forceful, no-nonsense voice that reads as assertive and energetic, with a slightly retro, arcade-like edge.
The letterforms appear designed to maximize visual weight and presence through squared proportions and repeated facet cuts, trading smooth curvature for a constructed, engineered feel. Its consistent chamfer system suggests an intention to look like cut or stamped lettering while remaining straightforward to set in blocks of text at display sizes.
The design maintains strong consistency in its chamfer angles across the alphabet, helping it feel cohesive at large sizes. The numerals share the same squared, notched construction, and the narrow internal openings can fill in at small sizes, pushing the font toward headline use.
