A heavy, geometric sans built from straight strokes and clipped corners, replacing curves with crisp planar facets. Counters tend toward squared/octagonal shapes, producing a compact, machined silhouette with strong horizontal and vertical emphasis. Stroke weight stays consistent throughout, with sharp joins and deliberate notches that keep forms open while maintaining a dense, poster-like color. The lowercase echoes the uppercase structure closely, favoring sturdy, squared bowls and simplified terminals over calligraphic detail.
Best suited to large-scale display use where its angular detailing and dense weight can read cleanly—headlines, logos, packaging callouts, and title cards. It also fits interface moments that benefit from a hard-edged, retro-tech voice, such as gaming overlays, event graphics, and sports or automotive branding.
The overall tone is assertive and mechanical, with a retro-digital edge that reads as engineered rather than organic. Its faceted geometry and chunky mass convey power and speed, evoking arcade cabinets, sci‑fi interfaces, and industrial labeling.
The letterforms appear designed to translate a bold sans skeleton into a faceted, corner-cut system that suggests manufactured precision. By minimizing curves and keeping stroke weight consistent, it aims for maximum impact and a distinctive techno-industrial texture in short text.
The design relies on internal cut-ins and angled truncations to differentiate similar shapes, which strengthens personality at display sizes. The numerals follow the same corner-clipped construction, keeping the set visually cohesive for headings and scoreboard-style applications.
