A heavy, condensed display sans built from sharp, faceted strokes and mostly straight segments, with a consistent, monoline-like thickness. Corners are cut into hard chamfers and wedges, giving bowls and counters a polygonal feel; apertures tend to be tight and rectangular. Many glyphs show a subtle backward slant and a slightly unstable, hand-cut rhythm, with widths that vary from compact to broader forms depending on the letter structure. The lowercase maintains a straightforward, geometric construction with compact counters, while numerals are similarly block-built and tightly spaced in their internal openings.
Best suited for display applications where impact matters: posters, covers, event graphics, titles, logo wordmarks, and bold packaging. It can also work for game or tech-themed UI headers and badges where a rugged, angular voice is desired, rather than for small-size body copy.
The overall tone feels loud, gritty, and high-impact—more like lettering for action, arcade, or street-facing graphics than neutral text typography. Its reverse-leaning stance and chiseled shapes add tension and motion, suggesting speed, toughness, and a slightly rebellious, DIY edge.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch in a compact footprint, using chamfered geometry and strong negative-space carving to create a distinctive, edgy texture. The reverse-leaning posture and uneven, cut-like terminals reinforce a kinetic, street/arcade display personality.
In longer lines the tight counters and sharp joins create a strong texture and a “cut-paper” silhouette, with negative space doing much of the character definition (notably in B, R, S, and 8). The form language stays consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, supporting cohesive branding, though the dense interior shapes imply it will read best at larger sizes or with generous tracking.
