A heavy, slanted display sans built from hard-edged, planar facets that replace curves with beveled corners and straight segments. Counters are small and mostly polygonal, giving rounded letters like O, C, and G an octagonal feel. Strokes stay broadly consistent in thickness, with abrupt terminals and crisp joins that create a cut, machined rhythm. Uppercase forms are compact and sturdy, while lowercase keeps the same faceted construction with simplified, block-like bowls and short ascenders/descenders; numerals follow the same angular geometry for a uniform set.
Best suited to headlines and prominent display work where the faceted silhouettes can read as a deliberate stylistic choice. It works well for sports branding, team or event graphics, poster titles, product names, and punchy packaging or label typography. Use with generous size and spacing when you need maximum impact and legibility.
The overall tone is forceful and high-energy, with a competitive, action-forward feel. The faceting and forward slant suggest speed, toughness, and a slightly retro athletic or arcade sensibility rather than a calm, editorial voice.
Designed to deliver a bold, forward-leaning voice with a chiseled, geometric texture, translating sans-serif skeletons into a faceted, cut-metal aesthetic. The aim appears to be strong presence and instant recognition in short, high-contrast statements rather than extended reading.
The angular construction produces strong silhouettes and clear word shapes at larger sizes, but the tight counters and dense texture can close up in smaller settings or on low-resolution output. The consistent beveling across letters and numbers helps maintain cohesion in headlines, logos, and short bursts of text.
