A heavy, block-built sans with sharply chamfered corners and planar facets that substitute for curves. Strokes are mostly straight and orthogonal, with consistent diagonal cut-ins at terminals, producing a crisp, engineered silhouette. Counters tend to be compact and squared-off, and several forms use internal notches or wedge-shaped apertures that add a rugged, cut-metal feel. Spacing and rhythm read tight and punchy, optimized for large-scale impact rather than delicate detail.
Best suited to display settings where its angular mass and faceted terminals can read clearly—headlines, posters, badges, and logo marks. It also fits sports and team-style branding, as well as packaging or labels that benefit from an industrial, hardwearing presence. In longer text, it works most effectively at larger sizes where the compact counters remain open enough to stay legible.
The overall tone is bold and utilitarian, evoking industrial labeling and vintage athletic lettering. Its faceted geometry feels mechanical and no-nonsense, with a confident, forceful voice suited to attention-grabbing statements.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a distinctly geometric, cut-corner construction—capturing the feel of machined or stamped lettering while remaining cleanly sans and highly graphic.
The numerals and capitals carry a strong sign-paint/jersey sensibility through their clipped corners and dense interiors. The lowercase retains the same hard-edged construction, keeping a uniform, monolithic texture in text lines while maintaining distinct silhouettes through strategic cut-ins and simplified bowls.
