A heavy, geometric sans built from straight strokes and clipped corners, replacing curves with crisp planar facets. Counters are mostly rectangular and tightly enclosed, giving the letters a compact, armored silhouette and strong figure/ground contrast. The rhythm is sturdy and mechanical, with squared terminals, pronounced diagonals, and a consistent use of chamfers that keeps curves feeling intentionally “cut” rather than drawn. Numerals and capitals read especially solid and emblematic, while lowercase maintains the same angular construction with simplified joins and minimal rounding.
Best used in large sizes where the chamfered geometry and tight counters can be appreciated—headlines, posters, packaging callouts, team or event branding, and logo wordmarks. It also fits interface labels and on-screen graphics for games or tech-themed visuals where a robust, angular voice is desired.
The overall tone is forceful and utilitarian, evoking machinery, sci‑fi interfaces, and arcade-era display lettering. Its faceted shapes suggest precision and impact, creating a confident, slightly confrontational voice suited to attention-grabbing headlines.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum impact with a consistent faceted construction, translating a stencil/industrial sensibility into a clean, sans framework. Its clipped corners and rectangular counters prioritize a bold, engineered look that remains systematic across letters and numerals.
The design favors closed, boxy counters and stepped transitions, which can make similar forms feel close in texture at small sizes but very distinctive at display sizes. The uppercase set feels particularly suited to badges and titling, while the lowercase keeps a consistent, engineered personality rather than a handwritten or humanist one.
