A heavy, geometric display sans with faceted, chamfered corners and a strongly cut, stencil-like internal shaping. Strokes are built from broad, flat planes with abrupt angled transitions, creating a carved, wedge-driven rhythm rather than smooth curves. Counters are small and often polygonal, with distinctive notches and sharp ink-trap-like cuts that open tight joins in letters like E, S, a, e, and s. The overall silhouette is wide and squat, with compact apertures and a consistent, hard-edged texture across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, event graphics, sports or team identities, and bold packaging. It can also work for compact logotypes where a rigid, industrial texture is desirable; longer text will quickly feel dense due to tight counters and strong internal cuts.
The tone is loud and mechanical, combining a rugged, engineered feel with a vintage sign-and-poster sensibility. Its sharp corners and carved interiors give it an aggressive, action-forward voice that reads as sporty and attention-grabbing.
Likely designed to deliver maximum visual punch through blocky proportions and faceted cuts, producing a distinctive carved texture that holds up at display sizes and creates memorable word shapes.
Uppercase forms lean toward slabby rectangles with clipped terminals, while lowercase echoes the same faceted logic, keeping the family feeling consistent. Numerals are similarly angular and dense, with the 0 and 8 showing strongly geometric internal openings that reinforce the cut-out effect.
