A compact, tall sans with thick, even strokes and a strongly squared silhouette. Curves are largely replaced by clipped corners and planar facets, producing octagonal counters and notched joins. Terminals are blunt and rectangular, with occasional chamfering that sharpens the rhythm without adding contrast. The overall construction feels engineered and modular, with tight internal spaces that stay readable at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and branding where a dense, high-impact texture is desirable. It also fits sports graphics, labels, and wayfinding-style signage that benefits from crisp, angular forms and a condensed footprint.
The tone is forceful and utilitarian, leaning toward sporty and industrial signage. Its faceted geometry adds a rugged, machined edge that reads as confident and slightly retro, like lettering cut from metal or applied to equipment.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch in limited horizontal space while maintaining a cohesive, geometric voice. By trading smooth curves for facets and squared counters, it emphasizes a tough, engineered character aimed at display typography.
Lowercase forms keep a sturdy, compact feel with minimal modulation, and the numerals follow the same squared, chamfered logic for consistent texture. The dense, vertical footprint creates strong word shapes and a dark typographic color, especially in all-caps settings.
