A heavy, faceted sans with curves replaced by crisp chamfers, producing octagonal bowls and clipped terminals throughout. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal contrast, and the overall construction feels geometric and modular, with squared-off counters in letters like O, C, and G. Proportions are compact and sturdy; uppercase forms read like signage blocks, while lowercase keeps the same chiseled logic with simple, vertical stems and short joins. Numerals follow the same cut-corner geometry, maintaining a uniform, engineered rhythm across the set.
Best suited to headlines and short-form display work where the chamfered geometry can read clearly—such as posters, branding marks, packaging, apparel graphics, and sports or industrial-themed identity systems. It can also work for labels and wayfinding-style applications where bold, simplified shapes and quick recognition are priorities.
The tone is tough and utilitarian, with a sporty, workmanlike character that evokes industrial labeling and team or equipment graphics. Its sharp facets add a retro-tech edge, making the voice feel decisive and mechanical rather than friendly or calligraphic.
The design appears intended to translate a straightforward sans skeleton into a hard-edged, machined aesthetic by systematically replacing curves with planar cuts. This creates a cohesive, high-impact style aimed at bold display communication and brandable, graphic letterforms.
The angular treatment is applied very consistently, creating clear silhouettes at display sizes and a strong texture in lines of text. The faceting introduces small interior angles at joins and corners, giving the face a distinctive ‘cut metal’ look while keeping overall shapes simple and highly graphic.
