A heavy, block-built sans with sharply chamfered corners and a distinctly faceted silhouette. Strokes are predominantly vertical and horizontal, with abrupt angle cuts creating octagonal terminals and crisp inner notches. Counters tend to be narrow and rectangular, and several glyphs show pronounced cut-ins that emphasize a chiseled, constructed feel. The overall rhythm is compact and dense, favoring tall proportions and tight interior spaces that read best at larger sizes.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as posters, mastheads, packaging, sports graphics, and bold branding marks. It can also work for signage or titles where a strong industrial voice is desired, but the dense counters suggest avoiding long passages of small text.
The font projects a rugged, no-nonsense tone—mechanical, tough, and attention-grabbing. Its angular construction evokes stamped metal, athletic lettering, and industrial signage, giving headlines a forceful, commanding presence. The visual texture is bold and assertive, with a retro display energy.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact through a geometric, chamfered construction that stays cleanly sans while adding a cut, machined character. Its forms prioritize solidity and immediacy, aiming for strong recognition in display typography.
Diagonal strokes are minimized or visually squared off, reinforcing a monolithic texture across words. The numerals share the same faceted logic, with strong vertical emphasis and clipped corners that keep the set visually consistent in display settings.
