A compact, blocky sans with chamfered corners and faceted construction that replaces curves with short straight segments. Strokes are consistently heavy and largely uniform, creating a dense color on the page, while counters stay open enough to remain legible at display sizes. The uppercase set is tall and squared-off, with octagonal rounds in letters like C, G, O, and Q; the lowercase echoes the same angular logic with simple, sturdy forms and minimal modulation. Numerals follow the same cut-corner geometry, reading like engineered signage with crisp terminals and tight interior shapes.
Works well for headlines, posters, labels, and signage where a compact, high-impact voice is needed. It also suits sports branding and packaging that benefits from rugged, engineered letterforms and a strong, blocky texture.
The overall tone is tough, utilitarian, and assertive, with an industrial/athletic flavor reminiscent of equipment labeling and team or uniform lettering. Its faceted edges add a technical, machined feel that reads as disciplined and no-nonsense rather than friendly or casual.
The font appears designed to deliver a sturdy, space-saving display sans with a distinctive faceted silhouette. By standardizing chamfered corners and keeping stroke weight consistent, it aims for a cohesive, industrial look that stays legible while projecting strength and precision.
The design’s repeated corner cuts create a strong rhythm and consistent texture across mixed-case settings, while the narrow proportions help text feel compact and space-efficient. Angular “round” letters and squared terminals give headlines a hard-edged presence, and the dense stroke weight makes it best suited to larger sizes or high-contrast reproduction.
