A compact, heavy, all-caps–friendly sans with tightly controlled widths and tall lowercase proportions. Letterforms are built from squared, slightly tapered strokes with abrupt terminals and occasional clipped corners, producing a chiseled, constructed silhouette. Counters are small and often rectangular, and curves are largely minimized into angled joins, giving round letters a faceted feel. Overall spacing reads dense and rhythmic, with a strong vertical emphasis and sturdy, uniform stroke presence.
Best suited to display work such as posters, headlines, event graphics, packaging, labels, and bold signage where its dense, angular texture can read as a deliberate stylistic choice. It can also work for compact wordmarks and short emphatic statements, especially in uppercase or mixed-case with generous tracking.
The font conveys a bold, utilitarian attitude with a retro-industrial edge. Its sharp geometry and compressed stance feel authoritative and mechanical, while the idiosyncratic cuts and faceting add a slightly playful, handmade “stamped” character.
The letterforms appear intentionally engineered for maximum impact in a tight footprint, using squared counters and faceted strokes to create a strong, industrial voice. The controlled geometry suggests a desire for a constructed, poster-ready aesthetic rather than neutral text readability.
The design maintains a consistent block-built logic across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, with distinctive squared counters and angled diagonals that keep the texture lively at display sizes. The heavy massing and reduced interior space make it most visually effective when given sufficient size and breathing room.
