A heavy, block-built sans with pronounced chamfered corners that replace curves with planar facets. Strokes are consistently thick and largely monolinear, producing a compact, high-impact texture. Counters are squared-off and angular, and joins form crisp interior angles; round letters (like O and C) read as octagonal silhouettes. Spacing appears sturdy and even in text, with short extenders and a pragmatic, sign-like rhythm.
Best suited to short-form display work where impact matters: headlines, posters, branding marks, and labels. It also fits sports or equipment aesthetics, industrial or tech-themed graphics, and high-contrast UI moments like badges or section headers at larger sizes.
The faceted geometry gives a tough, mechanical voice that feels engineered rather than expressive. Its sharp corner cuts and solid mass suggest a utilitarian confidence, reading as sporty, industrial, and slightly retro-digital depending on context. Overall tone is bold and no-nonsense, optimized for attention and immediacy.
The design appears intended to translate geometric, faceted letterforms into a practical display sans that remains readable while emphasizing sharp, machined shapes. It prioritizes strong silhouettes, consistent weight, and a distinctive angular voice for branding and attention-grabbing typography.
Numerals follow the same angular logic with clipped terminals and simplified bowls, maintaining strong consistency with the uppercase. The lowercase echoes the caps with minimal modulation, keeping word shapes chunky and uniform. The design favors legibility through clear silhouettes and sturdy counters rather than delicate detail.
