A heavy, monoline slab serif with squared, unbracketed terminals and a strongly angular, chamfered construction. Curves are largely replaced by straight segments, producing octagonal bowls and corners that read like cut metal or stencil-like geometry while remaining fully closed. The strokes are consistently thick with compact counters, and the overall rhythm is steady and grid-friendly; serifs appear as broad, rectangular caps on key terminals rather than delicate finishing strokes.
Best suited to display settings where its chunky slabs and faceted shapes can read clearly at medium to large sizes—posters, headlines, packaging labels, wayfinding, and bold brand marks. It can also work for short bursts of text when a deliberately mechanical, patterned texture is desired.
The font conveys a tough, workmanlike tone with hints of athletic and institutional lettering. Its sharp chamfers and blocky silhouettes feel engineered and no-nonsense, suggesting durability, machinery, and signage rather than refinement.
The design appears intended to merge classic slab-serif sturdiness with a geometric, chamfered aesthetic for strong impact and consistent grid alignment. It prioritizes bold silhouette, repeatable shapes, and a distinctive industrial flavor over softness or calligraphic modulation.
Uppercase forms feel more emblematic and plaque-like due to the faceted bowls, while lowercase maintains the same angular logic for a cohesive texture in paragraphs. Numerals follow the same cut-corner motif, keeping the set visually uniform and strongly patterned.
