A condensed, heavy display sans built from straight strokes and crisp, chamfered corners. Curves are largely replaced by planar facets, producing octagonal counters and clipped terminals throughout. The vertical rhythm is strong and steady, with tight interior apertures and compact joins that keep forms dense. Uppercase shapes feel especially rigid and architectural, while the lowercase keeps the same geometric logic with simplified bowls and short, squared-off terminals; numerals follow the same cut-corner construction for a consistent texture in strings of text.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and attention-first branding where compact width and strong presence are advantages. It performs well on sports or event graphics, bold packaging callouts, and signage that benefits from condensed, high-contrast shapes at larger sizes.
The overall tone is forceful and high-impact, with a utilitarian, industrial edge. Its sharp facets and compressed stance suggest urgency and strength, reading as bold and energetic rather than friendly or lyrical.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in limited horizontal space, using clipped, faceted geometry to replace traditional curves and create a rugged, engineered personality.
The faceting introduces a distinctive sparkle at corners and diagonals, giving large sizes a carved, machined look. In longer text, the narrow apertures and tight counters can create a dark, compact color, making it best when you want density and punch over openness.
