A sharply angular, black-weight display sans built from straight stems and clipped corners. Counters and joins tend to form octagonal or notched shapes, with triangular ink traps and wedge-like terminals that create a cut-metal or stenciled feel. Stroke contrast is expressed through sudden tapers and bevels rather than smooth modulation, giving the letters a faceted, engineered rhythm. Uppercase forms read compact and vertical, while lowercase is simplified and structural, with a single-storey a and g and a narrow, upright construction across the set.
Best suited for headlines, posters, logos, and packaging where its faceted geometry can read clearly and add character. It also fits signage or labels that benefit from an industrial, engineered look, especially at medium-to-large sizes.
The tone is forceful and mechanical, evoking industrial labeling and retro machine-era graphics. Its hard corners and chiseled details convey toughness and urgency, making the voice feel bold, utilitarian, and slightly aggressive.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum impact with a constructed, beveled aesthetic—prioritizing a distinctive, machine-cut silhouette over neutral text readability. Its consistent corner language across letters and numbers suggests a cohesive system intended for bold display typography.
The design relies on distinctive corner cuts and internal notches that remain visible at larger sizes but may clutter at small sizes. Numerals share the same faceted geometry, with strong diagonals and clipped bowls that emphasize a technical, display-first character.
