A heavy, block-built sans with faceted corners and flattened curves that read as clipped, planar shapes. Strokes are consistently thick with squared terminals and frequent chamfers that create an octagonal silhouette in bowls and counters. The uppercase is compact and commanding, while the lowercase keeps the same geometric logic with sturdy, boxy forms and minimal curvature. Numerals follow the same cut-corner construction, producing a cohesive, sign-like rhythm across letters and figures.
Best suited to large-scale display settings where its dense weight and faceted construction can read clearly—headlines, posters, sports branding, team or event graphics, and bold packaging. It also works well for labels and UI moments that need a rugged, industrial accent, especially when paired with a simpler text face.
The overall tone is tough and functional, with an industrial and athletic edge. Its sharp chamfers and dense, uniform color feel assertive and technical, evoking stenciled hardware markings and scoreboard typography more than refined editorial text.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum punch with a rigid, cut-corner geometry, translating curved letterforms into a faceted system for a strong, mechanical presence. Consistent stroke mass and chamfer logic suggest a focus on bold legibility and graphic impact rather than delicate typographic nuance.
Counters are relatively tight, and interior shapes often appear squared-off, which boosts impact but can reduce differentiation at smaller sizes. The faceting is applied consistently across straight and rounded letters, giving the design a deliberate, engineered look.
