A heavy, all-caps–friendly display sans built from straight strokes and clipped corners, replacing curves with planar facets. Stems are thick and uniform, counters are tight and mostly rectangular, and terminals end in flat cuts or diagonal chamfers. The overall silhouette reads compact and sturdy, with consistent stroke weight across letters and numerals, plus slightly squared bowls and apertures that keep the texture dense in text.
Best suited to bold headlines, posters, wordmarks, and brand marks where strong geometry and maximum impact are desired. It works well for sports branding, merchandise/apparel graphics, and punchy labels or UI callouts when set with generous spacing and used at display sizes.
The faceted, stencil-like geometry gives the face a tough, no-nonsense tone reminiscent of athletic lettering, equipment labeling, and bold signage. Its sharp corners and compressed counters create an energetic, forceful rhythm that feels mechanical and rugged rather than soft or refined.
The design appears intended to deliver a high-impact, angular display voice by translating familiar sans proportions into a faceted, corner-cut construction. This approach emphasizes durability and immediacy, prioritizing bold silhouettes and graphic presence over delicate readability in long text.
At smaller sizes the tight internal spaces and dense color can close up, while at larger sizes the chamfered details become a defining feature. The numerals follow the same octagonal logic as the capitals, supporting a cohesive, uniform look across headings and short callouts.
