A faceted, angular sans with chamfered corners that replace curves with short planar cuts, producing octagonal counters and clipped terminals. Strokes are largely monolinear with minimal contrast, and the design maintains an upright stance with compact, sturdy proportions. The lowercase follows the same cut-corner logic, with single-storey forms and wedge-like joins that keep the rhythm sharp and mechanical. Numerals and capitals read particularly bold in silhouette due to their straight runs and beveled corners.
Best suited to display typography where the faceted construction can be appreciated: headlines, posters, packaging, and identity work that aims for a technical or industrial voice. It also fits signage and wayfinding-style applications, as well as sporty branding where angular, cut-corner forms read energetic and tough.
The overall tone feels engineered and purpose-built, with a sporty, industrial edge reminiscent of stencil-free signage, equipment labeling, and jersey-style block lettering. Its crisp facets give it a retro-tech flavor while staying clean and modern in texture.
The design appears intended to translate a geometric, machined aesthetic into a readable text face by systematically chamfering corners and simplifying curves into facets. It prioritizes strong silhouettes and consistent polygonal detailing to deliver a distinctive, engineered look across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
The strongest identifying feature is the consistent chamfer system applied across straight strokes and curves alike, creating distinctive polygonal bowls (notably in rounded letters and the 0/8/9). Spacing appears relatively open in the sample text, helping the sharp details stay legible at display sizes while keeping a firm, disciplined cadence.
