A heavy, condensed display face built from sharp planar facets rather than true curves. Strokes are uniform and dense, with clipped corners, octagonal counters, and pointed internal joins that create a chiseled, cut-metal feel. Terminals are predominantly squared and beveled, producing a consistent zig-zag rhythm along verticals and diagonals. The lowercase follows the same constructed logic with mostly single-storey forms and compact counters, while numerals echo the angular geometry for a tight, punchy color in text.
Best suited to large-scale applications where its angular construction and compact width can deliver maximum impact: headlines, posters, labels, team or athletic branding, and bold wordmarks. It can also work for short UI headings or signage when a tough, engineered tone is desired.
The overall tone is forceful and utilitarian, with a retro-industrial edge that can read as both blackletter-adjacent and machinery-stamped. Its faceted shapes feel engineered and assertive, lending a stern, old-world-meets-modern character that stands out immediately in headlines.
The font appears designed to deliver a bold, condensed voice using a faceted, beveled construction that suggests carving, stamping, or cut lettering. The consistent angular logic across capitals, lowercase, and numerals indicates an intention to provide a cohesive display system with strong silhouette recognition.
In longer lines, the repeated bevels and notched corners create a lively texture, especially around joins in letters like M, N, W, and X. The design favors silhouette impact over softness, so spacing and size will strongly influence readability in continuous text.
