A compact, heavy display sans built from straight strokes and chamfered corners, with planar facets substituting for curves throughout. Stems are thick and consistent, counters are tight, and many joins terminate in clipped angles that create a rigid, engineered silhouette. The uppercase set reads as tall and condensed with strong vertical emphasis, while the lowercase follows the same geometric logic with simplified bowls and crisp, squared terminals. Numerals are sturdy and squared-off, maintaining the same faceted rhythm and dense interior spaces.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, team or esports identity, product packaging, and bold logo wordmarks. It also works well for labels, badges, and signage-style compositions where a compact, angular texture and strong presence are desired.
The overall tone is assertive and hard-edged, evoking industrial signage, sports branding, and utilitarian labeling. Its sharp facets and compact mass give it a disciplined, no-nonsense presence that feels both retro and tactical.
The letterforms appear designed to deliver maximum impact in a tight width while establishing a signature faceted look. By replacing curves with chamfers and keeping stroke weight steady, the design aims for a rugged, machined aesthetic that remains legible and consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
At text sizes the tight counters and dense color can make longer passages feel heavy, but the consistent faceting produces a distinctive texture that stays coherent across mixed case and numerals. The design’s clipped corners and straight-sided forms help it hold shape under bold treatments and high-contrast applications.
