A compact, heavy sans with sharply chamfered corners and planar, faceted construction that replaces most curves with angled segments. Strokes maintain a consistent thickness, creating a solid, poster-ready color, while counters are tight and geometric (notably in O, Q, and 8). Terminals are typically flat with clipped joins, and diagonals in A, V, W, X, and Y feel engineered rather than calligraphic. Lowercase forms are simple and sturdy with single-storey a and g, short ascenders/descenders, and a straightforward, no-nonsense rhythm in text.
Well-suited for punchy headlines, packaging and brand marks that need an industrial or sporty attitude, and short-form messaging where the faceted geometry can be appreciated. It also fits UI labels, wayfinding, and event graphics when a compact, high-impact sans is desired.
The overall tone is tough and mechanical, with a slightly futuristic edge driven by the cut, faceted detailing. It reads as confident and action-oriented, suggesting utility, speed, and engineered precision rather than warmth or elegance.
Likely designed to deliver a strong condensed voice with a recognizable faceted silhouette, trading roundness for angular efficiency to create a rugged, modern display presence.
The condensed proportions and tight apertures make the face feel compact and efficient, while the distinctive chamfers add identity at display sizes. Numerals and capitals share the same clipped, geometric logic, supporting consistent signage-style emphasis across mixed content.
