A condensed, faceted display sans with planar cuts replacing curves and corners. Strokes are heavy and largely monolinear, with sharp chamfers and occasional notches that create a chiseled silhouette. Counters are compact and angular (notably in O, Q, and 8), and diagonals appear as straight facets rather than smooth joins. The rhythm is tight and vertical, with squared terminals and a slightly irregular, hand-cut texture that remains consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited to headlines and short settings where its angular facets can read as a deliberate stylistic cue. It performs well in posters, bold branding moments, packaging callouts, and signage or wayfinding where a tough, industrial character is desired.
The font conveys a hard, assertive tone—mechanical and rugged rather than refined. Its sharp facets and compressed proportions suggest urgency and impact, evoking industrial labeling, sports or team energy, and a subtle retro sign-paint/woodcut feel.
The design appears intended to translate a carved or cut-metal aesthetic into a compact, high-impact headline face. By substituting curves with straight facets and keeping stroke contrast minimal, it emphasizes solidity and graphic punch at display sizes.
Lowercase forms mirror the uppercase’s faceted construction, keeping a unified voice while maintaining clear case differentiation. Numerals follow the same chamfered geometry, with strong, poster-friendly silhouettes that prioritize shape recognition over smoothness.
