A heavy, angular display sans built from straight strokes and sharp corners, with planar, faceted joins replacing curves. Counters are mostly rectangular and tight, and terminals end bluntly, producing a compact, mechanical silhouette. Many glyphs include intentional distressing—small chips and worn patches within the black shapes—creating a textured, weathered fill while preserving rigid outer contours. Spacing and rhythm read as constructed and modular, with occasional width differences across letters and an overall emphasis on bold, graphic mass.
Best suited for short display settings such as posters, packaging callouts, titles, and branding that benefits from an industrial or techno edge. It also fits game/UI headers and sci‑fi themed graphics where a rugged, fabricated look is desired. The distressed detailing favors larger text and high-contrast applications over small body copy.
The font conveys a rugged, engineered tone—part industrial stencil, part sci‑fi interface. The chipped texture adds a gritty, used feel, while the faceted geometry keeps it hard-edged and contemporary, suggesting machinery, crates, arcade UI, or dystopian signage.
The design appears intended to merge a modular, faceted sans structure with a deliberately weathered surface, creating a tough, manufactured aesthetic. It prioritizes impact and theme-setting texture while maintaining a rigid, geometric framework.
The distressed interior pattern is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, giving large headlines an assertive, worn-in character. The angular construction and tight counters make it most effective at larger sizes where the texture and faceting remain legible.
