A heavy, angular sans with crisp planar cuts that replace many curves with chamfered corners and straight segments. Strokes are thick and largely uniform, with squared terminals and compact counters that read as octagonal or rectangular openings. The uppercase is tall and sturdy with a slightly squared-round rhythm (notably in O/D) and distinctive geometric joins in letters like K, M, N, and W. The lowercase keeps the same hard-edged construction, with single-storey a and g, and simple, squared punctuation-like dots on i/j; numerals follow the same cut-corner geometry for a cohesive, display-forward texture.
Best suited to headlines, posters, logos, and branding where the faceted geometry can read clearly and become a recognizable motif. It also works well for packaging, sports/tech-themed visuals, game titles, and interface-style graphics that benefit from a robust, engineered look.
The overall tone feels technical and engineered—like stenciled signage or UI lettering built from machined parts. Its sharp facets and dense color give it an assertive, no-nonsense voice with a retro-futurist edge that suggests hardware, sci‑fi interfaces, or industrial labeling.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, geometric display voice by translating round forms into cut-corner facets while keeping a consistent stroke weight and straightforward sans structure. The goal seems to be high impact and a distinctly technical silhouette rather than quiet text neutrality.
Large sizes emphasize the distinctive chamfers and give the face a strong, modular presence; at smaller sizes the tight counters and heavy weight may appear more compact and solid. Letterforms with interior notches and corner cuts add character while maintaining consistent construction across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
