A heavy, compact display sans built from straight strokes and clipped corners, replacing curves with planar chamfers. The letterforms are tall and tight, with squared counters and broad vertical stems that create a dense, even color in text. Terminals are consistently faceted, and joins are abrupt and geometric, giving the outlines a machined, cut-from-plate feel. Uppercase and lowercase share the same rigid construction, with lowercase forms appearing robust and squared rather than calligraphic.
Well suited for bold headlines, posters, and identity work where immediate impact is needed. The sturdy, faceted shapes fit sports branding, event graphics, labels, packaging, and wayfinding-style signage, especially when set large and with comfortable tracking.
The overall tone is forceful and utilitarian, with a strong athletic and signage-like presence. Its faceted geometry reads as rugged and no-nonsense, leaning toward retro sports and industrial labeling rather than friendly or editorial typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, compact display voice by translating a sans structure into a faceted, chamfered geometry. Its consistent corner treatment and block construction emphasize durability, legibility at distance, and an athletic/industrial graphic character.
The angular cuts are applied systematically across the alphabet and numerals, producing a cohesive rhythm and a distinctive silhouette at large sizes. The heavy weight and tight interior spaces suggest it’s best when given enough size or spacing to keep counters from filling in visually.
