A heavy, block-constructed sans with faceted, chamfered corners that replace curves with crisp planar cuts. Strokes are uniform and dense, with squarish bowls and tight interior counters that read as punched-out apertures. Terminals are blunt and squared, and many joins form stepped, rectangular notches that emphasize a machined, modular build. The overall rhythm is compact and forceful, with broad uppercase forms and sturdy lowercase that stays close to the same geometric language.
Best suited to large-format display settings such as headlines, posters, team and event graphics, game/UI title screens, and packaging where a strong, angular texture is desirable. It can also work for short labels or badges when set with enough breathing room, but extended text will be most comfortable at larger sizes.
The tone is tough and energetic, suggesting athletic branding, retro arcade signage, and industrial labeling. Its sharp facets and dense silhouettes create an assertive, no-nonsense voice that feels engineered and impact-driven rather than friendly or delicate.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through a faceted, engineered geometry—turning traditionally curved forms into chiseled shapes for a bold, attention-grabbing display presence. The consistent bevel logic across caps, lowercase, and numerals suggests a deliberate focus on a cohesive, industrial sport/arcade aesthetic.
Diagonal and rounded shapes are consistently resolved through bevels, giving letters and numerals an octagonal, cut-metal look. Counters tend to be small and rectangular, which increases ink density and strengthens headline presence but makes fine details depend on generous sizing and spacing.
