A heavy, block-forward slab serif with squared, chamfered corners and a distinctly octagonal construction throughout. Strokes are uniform in weight with minimal contrast, and most curves resolve into flattened arcs or faceted bends, giving rounds like O/C/G and numerals a machined, cut-from-metal feel. Serifs are thick and rectangular, often reading as integrated terminals rather than delicate brackets, and counters tend to be tight and geometric. Overall spacing and proportions favor broad, steady shapes with a strong horizontal emphasis and a crisp, modular rhythm in text.
Best suited to display applications where its angular slabs and faceted rounds can read as a deliberate graphic motif—headlines, posters, logos, athletic identities, and product or tool-like packaging. It also works well for signage-style layouts and short UI labels where a sturdy, industrial presence is desired.
The face projects a tough, engineered tone—part athletic, part industrial—evoking signage, equipment labeling, and retro scoreboard or arcade aesthetics. Its faceted geometry and firm slabs add a confident, no-nonsense voice that feels functional and impact-driven rather than elegant.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through geometric simplification and robust slab terminals, combining a traditional serif framework with a squared, machined construction. The consistent faceting suggests a focus on high-contrast silhouette recognition and a distinctive, rugged brand voice.
Distinctive corner chamfers and flattened bowls create strong pixel-adjacent clarity at display sizes, while the dense counters and heavy joins can make long passages feel busy at smaller sizes. Numerals and capitals share a consistent, squared skeleton that reinforces a cohesive, technical look.
