A heavy, geometric sans built from hard angles and planar facets, with chamfered corners replacing curves. Strokes are thick and mostly uniform, creating dense, blocklike silhouettes and strong, rectangular counters. The design leans wide with a squat stance; horizontals and diagonals dominate, and joins are crisp, producing a cut-metal feel. Lowercase echoes the uppercase construction, keeping the same clipped geometry and compact apertures for a consistent, modular rhythm in text.
Best suited to short, display-forward settings where its angular construction and dense weight can carry impact—titles, posters, product marks, esports or gaming graphics, and sci‑fi themed interfaces. It performs well when set large with generous spacing, where the faceting and counter shapes have room to resolve clearly.
The overall tone is assertive and high-impact, with a distinctly synthetic, machine-made character. Its sharp edges and faceted cuts suggest speed, armor, and engineered surfaces, giving it a futuristic, arcade-like energy that reads as bold and uncompromising.
The design appears intended to translate a techno/industrial aesthetic into a sturdy, geometric display voice by substituting curves with crisp chamfers and planar cuts. It prioritizes visual force and a mechanical, futuristic texture over neutral text readability.
The face favors straight segments and diagonal notches to imply curvature, which increases visual bite but can reduce softness and readability at small sizes. Numerals follow the same angular logic, with squared interiors and pronounced cuts that keep them stylistically aligned with the letters.
