A heavy, block-built sans with octagonal, chamfered corners that replace curves with crisp planar cuts. Strokes are consistently thick with compact counters and squared terminals, creating a dense texture and strong silhouette. The geometry leans on straight horizontals/verticals with occasional diagonal facets, producing a mechanical rhythm that stays legible at display sizes. Numerals and capitals share the same rugged, cut-corner construction, while the lowercase maintains a sturdy, compact presence with short extenders and tight apertures.
Best used for headlines, poster typography, team or sports identities, and high-impact promotional graphics where bold shapes need to hold up at a distance. It can also work for gaming or tech interfaces, labels, and short, emphatic copy where the dense texture adds punch. Longer text blocks may feel heavy due to the tight apertures and compact rhythm, so it’s strongest in display roles.
The overall tone is forceful and utilitarian, with a sporty, industrial edge. Its faceted construction and tightly packed forms suggest machinery, arcade-era graphics, and engineered signage rather than softness or elegance. The feel is confident and attention-grabbing, suited to messages that need to read loud and solid.
The design appears intended to translate a sturdy, engineered aesthetic into a readable display sans by substituting rounded strokes with controlled facets. It prioritizes impactful massing and a consistent chamfered system to create a recognizable, industrial voice that stays cohesive across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
The cut-corner system is applied consistently across rounds and joins, giving the face a cohesive, modular look. Counters are small and often rectangular, and some letters rely on notched joins and stepped diagonals to imply curvature. Spacing in the sample text reads compact and dense, emphasizing impact over airiness.
