A heavy, block-constructed sans with squared proportions and frequent chamfered corners that create an octagonal silhouette. Strokes are monolinear and geometry-driven, with rectangular counters and notched terminals that give many glyphs a cut-out, machined feel. Uppercase forms are wide and compact with strong horizontals; lowercase keeps the same modular logic, using single-storey constructions and simplified bowls. Numerals follow the same angular scheme, favoring straight segments and clipped curves for a consistent, sign-like rhythm.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, poster titles, logos, and bold labeling where its angular construction can be appreciated. It also fits interface or in-world graphics for games, sci‑fi/tech themes, and packaging that benefits from an industrial, stamped look.
The overall tone is assertive and utilitarian, evoking industrial labeling and retro-digital display aesthetics. Its sharp facets and dense color suggest durability and precision, reading as functional and purpose-built rather than friendly or literary.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch with a modular, engineered voice—prioritizing graphic presence and a distinctive, chamfered construction over conventional text neutrality.
Large, squared apertures and tight internal shapes make the design feel intentionally rugged; in longer text the strong, repetitive geometry creates a pronounced texture. The distinctive chamfers and occasional notch-like cuts act as identifying features that keep the style consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures.
