A heavy, block-built sans with squared proportions and a strongly geometric skeleton. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, and corners are mostly hard-cut with frequent 45° chamfers that create an octagonal, engineered silhouette. Counters tend to be compact and rectilinear, with occasional small notches and stepped joins that add a utilitarian, constructed feel. The overall rhythm is tight and punchy, with sturdy verticals and shortened horizontals that keep letterforms compact and sign-like.
Best suited to display settings where impact and solidity matter—posters, headlines, brand marks, team or event graphics, and bold packaging callouts. It also fits UI/game title treatments and signage-style applications where a compact, engineered look helps text hold its shape at a distance.
The font reads as tough and functional, evoking industrial labeling, varsity/arena energy, and retro arcade or military stenciling moods without overt decoration. Its sharp cuts and dense black texture convey urgency and authority, making it feel loud, confident, and intentionally rugged.
The design intention appears to prioritize maximum visual mass and a manufactured, machine-cut aesthetic. By using chamfered corners, tight counters, and squared terminals, it aims to deliver a consistent, high-impact texture that remains legible while projecting a rugged, industrial tone.
In the sample text, the dense texture and angular detailing stay consistent across upper and lowercase, with lowercase forms maintaining the same squared, built-up logic rather than becoming humanist or calligraphic. Numerals match the same chamfered construction, supporting a cohesive display system.
