A heavy, blocklike sans built from straight strokes and clipped corners, where curves are replaced by chamfered, polygonal facets. The forms feel compact and tightly fit, with squared terminals, narrow counters, and a consistent, uniform stroke presence throughout. Round letters (O, C, G, Q) read as octagonal shapes, while joins and diagonals are crisp and mechanical, producing a rigid, engineered rhythm in both caps and lowercase. The lowercase follows the same angular construction, with simplified bowls and a sturdy, modular silhouette that maintains strong legibility at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, posters, logos, and branding systems that need a compact, high-impact voice. It also works well for sports identities, packaging callouts, and signage where angular, cut-corner shapes read clearly and maintain a strong graphic footprint.
The overall tone is forceful and no-nonsense, with a sporty, institutional edge that evokes signage, equipment marking, and classic jersey lettering. Its faceted construction adds a rugged, machined character that feels bold, practical, and slightly retro.
The design appears intended to translate the feel of cut metal or jersey-block lettering into a clean, geometric sans, emphasizing faceted construction and dense, assertive shapes for immediate recognition at a distance.
Numerals and uppercase share a consistent, emblem-like presence, with squared shoulders and tight apertures that reinforce a compact texture in lines of text. The faceting is applied systematically across the set, giving the font a cohesive, stencil-adjacent solidity without relying on ornament.
