A heavy, compact display serif with a largely monoline construction and squared, rounded-corner geometry. Strokes terminate in small, bracketless wedge/flag-like serifs and frequent chamfers, giving many joins a notched, machined look. Counters are mostly rectangular or softly squared (notably in O/0 and e), and several glyphs show deliberate cut-ins or clipped corners that create a subtly stencil-like rhythm. The overall texture is dense and even, with tight interior spaces and a strong baseline presence that reads as sturdy at larger sizes.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and bold branding where its notched serifs and squared counters can be appreciated at size. It also fits packaging, labels, and signage systems that want a rugged, engineered display voice. In longer text, its dense color and tight counters suggest using it sparingly for emphasis rather than extended reading.
The font projects an industrial, engineered tone—confident and utilitarian with a touch of retro signage and athletic branding. Its sharp cut details and blocky proportions add a tactical, “built” feeling that can read as sporty or tech-forward depending on context.
The design appears intended to merge serif cues with a geometric, industrial build: traditional terminals are reinterpreted as compact wedges and chamfers, creating a display face that feels both structured and decorative. The consistent corner-cut motif suggests a focus on strong identity and high-impact word shapes for branding and titling.
Distinctive identifiers include the boxy, rounded-rectangle bowls, the angular treatment on diagonals (V/W/X/Y), and the recurring corner cuts that unify caps, lowercase, and numerals. The numerals share the same squared construction, with the 0 showing a distinctive interior form that enhances differentiation in display settings.
