A dense, block-built display sans with faceted, octagonal construction that replaces curves with straight cuts and chamfered corners. Strokes are consistently heavy and optically even, creating a strong vertical rhythm and compact counters. The proportions are tall and compressed, with squared terminals and a slightly engineered, stencil-like presence created by the repeated corner notches. Numerals match the same angular geometry, maintaining a uniform, rigid texture in headlines and short lines.
Best suited to display sizes where the angular cuts and compact counters can read clearly—sports branding, event posters, bold headlines, packaging callouts, and wayfinding or industrial-style signage. It works especially well where a strong, condensed wordmark needs to feel forceful and structured.
The overall tone is tough and utilitarian, evoking athletic lettering, industrial labeling, and retro sign systems. Its sharp facets and heavy presence feel assertive and no-nonsense, leaning toward a mechanical, hard-edged mood rather than friendly or casual.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in limited horizontal space while maintaining a consistent, engineered texture. Its repeated chamfers and planar construction suggest a deliberate move toward a faceted, hard-surface look for strong branding and attention-grabbing typography.
The faceting creates distinctive interior shapes in rounds like O/Q and in diagonals such as V/W/X/Y, giving text a jagged, high-contrast silhouette at word level. The lowercase follows the same angular logic and reads as a compact companion to the uppercase, with a consistent, tight visual color across mixed-case settings.
