A heavy, block-built sans with planar, faceted corners that turn bowls and curves into crisp chamfers. Strokes are consistently thick with squared terminals and minimal modulation, producing a dense, compact texture in text. Many glyphs show octagonal outer silhouettes and rectangular counters, with tightly controlled apertures and sturdy verticals. Uppercase forms read tall and commanding, while the lowercase keeps the same angular construction, yielding a cohesive, engineered feel across cases and figures.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and bold display settings where its faceted construction can read as a deliberate graphic motif. It also fits athletic identities, product packaging, labels, and directional or warning-style signage that benefits from a robust, high-impact voice.
The overall tone is tough and utilitarian, with a bold, no-nonsense presence that evokes stenciled hardware, team graphics, and industrial labeling. Its sharp facets add a futuristic edge while still feeling familiar and retro-technical, making it assertive rather than elegant.
The design appears intended to translate a geometric, chamfered aesthetic into a practical display sans: maximizing solidity and presence while maintaining consistent construction across uppercase, lowercase, and figures. The faceted corners replace curves to create a distinctive, machined character that remains legible and systematic in short-to-medium text settings.
In the sample text, the weight and tight internal spaces create strong headline impact and clear word shapes, but the faceting and compact counters suggest it will prefer generous tracking and sizes where interior openings remain distinct. The numerals follow the same angular logic, keeping a uniform, sign-like rhythm alongside letters.
