A heavy, angular display sans built from straight, block-like strokes and tight, squared counters. Corners are frequently chamfered or notched, creating a faceted, cut-metal look rather than smooth curves; rounded forms are suggested through stepped geometry. Terminals tend to be flat and abrupt, with occasional inward bites and triangular joins that add texture and help define apertures in letters like E, S, and G. Lowercase follows the same rigid construction, with compact bowls and simplified forms, producing a consistent, stencil-like rhythm across text.
Best suited to headlines, posters, logotypes, and branding where a strong, geometric texture is desirable. It can work well for packaging, labels, and signage that benefits from an industrial or retro-tech aesthetic. For extended reading, it’s most effective at larger sizes and with generous tracking to keep the notched details from visually filling in.
The overall tone is bold and mechanical, evoking industrial signage and retro, game-like lettering. Its sharp notches and stepped curves give it a slightly gothic, techno edge—more tough and utilitarian than friendly or conversational. In longer lines it reads as forceful and stylized, with a distinctly crafted, emblematic character.
The design intention appears to be a high-impact, constructed sans with a carved, angular motif—prioritizing personality and graphic presence over neutrality. Its stepped curves and chamfered terminals suggest a deliberate nod to historical blackletter rigidity translated into a modern, modular display style.
Spacing and sidebearings appear tuned for display use, with strong vertical emphasis and dense black color at text sizes. Numerals and capitals share the same squared, architectural construction, supporting cohesive titling systems; the distinctive notches can become a prominent texture when set in paragraphs.
