A condensed, heavy display face built from straight strokes and sharp, chamfered corners. Curves are largely replaced by planar facets, producing octagonal counters and clipped terminals that feel carved rather than drawn. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, and the overall texture is dense and dark. The lowercase follows the same rigid geometry with compact bowls and short extenders, maintaining a tight rhythm in running text.
Best suited for headlines, posters, wordmarks, and brand moments that benefit from a compact, high-impact silhouette. It also fits labels, packaging, and event or sports graphics where an industrial or neo-gothic feel is desired, especially at medium to large sizes.
The faceted construction and blunt weight convey a tough, mechanical tone with strong historical echoes of blackletter and signage lettering. It reads as stern and commanding, with a slightly game-like or metal-inspired edge due to the repeated angled cuts and hard joins.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence in a tight horizontal footprint, using faceted geometry to suggest carved metal, stenciled signage, or architectural lettering. Its consistent angular system prioritizes a distinctive texture and strong display impact over comfortable long-form reading.
Counters tend to be small and angular, so legibility improves with generous tracking and larger sizes. The numerals match the same clipped, architectural silhouette, keeping a consistent, blocky presence across alphanumerics.
