A compact, heavy display sans built from straight segments and sharp chamfered corners, giving most strokes an octagonal, faceted outline. Curves are consistently replaced by planar cuts, producing angular counters and notches that read like clipped terminals. The overall texture is dense and dark, with sturdy verticals and simplified joins; round letters (O, C, G, S) become geometric polygons while diagonals (K, V, W, X, Y, Z) keep crisp, mechanical edges. Numerals follow the same cut-corner logic, with an especially geometric 0 and tightly constructed 8.
Best suited to headlines and short bursts of text where its dark color and faceted details can read clearly—posters, event titles, sports branding, team or varsity-style applications, and bold packaging. It can also work for wordmarks and badges where a tough, geometric texture is desired.
The faceted construction and blunt massing create an energetic, no-nonsense tone that feels sporty and industrial. Its clipped corners and chunky rhythm also lend a retro sign-painting and collegiate feel, balancing toughness with a slightly playful, graphic character.
The design appears intended to translate classic block lettering into a sharply planed, cut-corner style that stays uniform across caps, lowercase, and figures. Its goal is impact and recognizability through geometric simplification and a consistent faceted silhouette.
A number of forms incorporate small interior cut-ins and angled terminals that add visual bite and help distinguish letters at display sizes. The lowercase keeps the same angular language as the uppercase, avoiding soft bowls and maintaining a consistent geometric motif across the set.
