A heavy, block-built sans with squared counters and a rounded-rectangle foundation, shaped by frequent chamfered corners and diagonal slice terminals. Strokes stay consistently thick, with tight apertures and small, rectangular interior spaces (notably in letters like O, A, and B), giving the design a dense, engineered rhythm. Many joins and terminals show wedge-like cut-ins that read as inktrap-style notches, helping define the silhouette at display sizes. Proportions favor sturdy horizontals and verticals, with simplified geometry and minimal curvature beyond the superelliptic rounding.
Best suited to large-scale typography where its dense color and distinctive corner cuts can be appreciated—headlines, posters, title cards, logos, and bold packaging or label systems. It can also work for short UI labels or signage when used at generous sizes and with careful tracking.
The overall tone is tough and utilitarian, evoking industrial labeling, sports or team titling, and arcade-era display typography. Its cut corners and compact counters add a high-impact, slightly aggressive feel that reads as both retro and tech-forward.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through compact, squared forms and chamfered detailing, creating strong letter silhouettes with an engineered, display-first character.
The numerals follow the same squared, chamfered logic and appear optimized for punchy headings rather than small text. The texture is intentionally dark, and spacing in the sample suggests best performance with a bit of breathing room in longer lines.
