A condensed geometric sans with an octagonal, chamfered construction that replaces curves with crisp planar cuts. Strokes are consistently heavy and largely monoline, with rounded joins kept to a minimum and corners frequently clipped to create faceted terminals. Counters tend toward squarish forms, and the overall silhouette is tall and compact, producing a tight rhythm in both caps and lowercase. Numerals follow the same angular logic, with strong, blocky outlines and clearly cut corners.
Best suited for display typography where its angular facets and compact proportions can be read clearly—headlines, posters, team or event branding, tech packaging, and wayfinding-style signage. It can also work for short UI labels or interface headings when a strong, engineered look is desired, but extended body text may feel visually dense due to the heavy strokes and condensed spacing.
The faceted, engineered shapes give the font a technical, industrial tone with a sporty edge. Its hard corners and compact width feel modern and purposeful, evoking signage, equipment labeling, and sci‑fi interfaces rather than casual editorial typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a robust, space-efficient sans with a consistent faceted motif, creating a modern industrial voice that remains legible and impactful in branding and headline contexts.
Diagonal strokes (notably in A, K, V, W, X, Y) read as straight, structural elements, while rounded letters are implied through segmented facets. The distinctive chamfering provides a consistent motif across letters and figures, helping the design stay cohesive at display sizes.
