A heavy, compact sans with planar, chamfered corners that replace most curves with straight segments. Strokes are monolinear and the interior counters are tight, producing dense silhouettes and strong color on the page. The design favors squared geometry and clipped terminals; round letters (O, C, G, Q) read as faceted octagons, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) are steep and muscular. Lowercase forms keep the same angular logic, with short joins and simplified bowls, giving text a uniform, hard-edged rhythm.
Best suited to display settings where bold impact and a hard-edged voice are desired—headlines, posters, event graphics, and sports or team-oriented branding. It also fits industrial-themed packaging and large-format signage where the faceted geometry can be appreciated.
The face projects a tough, utilitarian energy with an athletic, signage-forward presence. Its faceted construction feels mechanical and rugged, lending an assertive, no-nonsense tone that reads as both retro and industrial.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch through dense, monolinear strokes and a consistently faceted construction. By systematically chamfering corners and simplifying curves, it aims for a rugged, machine-made aesthetic that stays legible and emphatic in short bursts of text.
Numerals and capitals are especially punchy due to their squared proportions and clipped corners. The overall texture stays consistent across lines of text, and the tight apertures and counters emphasize bold impact over delicate detail at smaller sizes.
