A heavy, block-constructed sans with squared proportions and pronounced chamfered corners that create a faceted silhouette. Strokes are uniformly thick with minimal modulation, and counters tend toward tight, rectangular apertures that emphasize mass and density. The rhythm is compact and geometric, with mostly flat terminals, hard joins, and occasional notches/cut-ins that give several forms a slightly stenciled, machined feel. Lowercase retains a tall presence and simplified shapes, staying close to the uppercase’s modular construction for a consistent, display-forward texture.
Best suited for short, high-impact display typography such as posters, headlines, title cards, logos, and bold packaging. It can also work for game interfaces or on-screen labels where a rugged, retro-mechanical voice is desired, especially when used at larger sizes with comfortable spacing.
The overall tone is forceful and utilitarian, evoking industrial signage, arcade-era graphics, and rugged technical labeling. Its crisp angles and dense color read as confident and no-nonsense, with a playful retro edge when set large in headlines.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch through solid, modular letterforms and angular detailing. Its chamfered construction and tight counters suggest a deliberate nod to machine-made aesthetics and retro digital/arcade styling, prioritizing distinctive silhouette and impact over continuous-text comfort.
Because the internal spaces are small and the shapes are highly condensed into solid blocks, the type can visually clog at smaller sizes or in long passages; it benefits from generous tracking and ample line spacing. The distinctive chamfers and cut-ins become a key identifying feature in larger settings, where the font’s faceted geometry is most legible.
