A heavy, geometric sans with squared proportions and prominent chamfered corners that create an octagonal silhouette throughout. Strokes are predominantly monolinear with minimal modulation, and many glyphs feature small internal notches or slit-like counters that read as cut-outs rather than smooth bowls. Curves are largely suppressed in favor of straight segments, producing a rigid, machined rhythm; terminals tend to be flat and blunt, and joins are crisp and orthogonal. Spacing appears sturdy and even in text, with strong rectangular word shapes and a consistently dense color.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as posters, headlines, logo marks, sports or team-style graphics, packaging, and bold labels. It can work for display copy in compact blocks, but the dense internal cut-outs and tight apertures suggest using it at larger sizes where the carved details stay legible.
The overall tone is forceful and utilitarian, with a stamped or fabricated feel that suggests equipment labeling and bold signage. The chamfers and carved-in details give it a slightly retro-industrial character—confident, tough, and attention-grabbing rather than refined.
Likely intended as a display sans that prioritizes strong silhouette and industrial geometry, using chamfers and cut-in counters to create a distinctive, fabricated texture. The design aims for maximum impact and recognizability in branding and headline applications.
In the sample text, the notched counters and narrow apertures become a defining texture, adding grit and visual noise that reinforces the “cut metal” impression. The digit set follows the same faceted geometry, keeping numeric lines visually consistent with headlines.
