A compact, heavy all-caps-and-lowercase sans with pronounced chamfered corners that turn curves into crisp, faceted planes. Strokes are uniformly thick with minimal modulation, producing a strong, blocklike silhouette and tight internal counters (notably in B, O, P, and 8). The geometry leans rectangular and octagonal, with squared terminals, straight-sided bowls, and hard notches where joins meet, giving letters a cut-metal look. Spacing appears sturdy and economical, with dense forms that hold together well at large sizes.
Best suited to posters, headlines, and bold callouts where the faceted shapes can read clearly and deliver impact. It also fits sports branding and numbering systems, as well as packaging and signage that benefit from an industrial, hard-edged voice. For longer text, it will be most comfortable in short bursts (subheads, labels, captions) due to its dense, heavy color.
The overall tone is tough and no-nonsense, suggesting stenciled hardware, sports numbering, and utilitarian signage. Its sharp facets and compact build convey discipline and impact, reading as confident and slightly aggressive with a retro-industrial edge.
The design appears intended to translate a rugged, machined aesthetic into a highly legible display sans, replacing curves with planar cuts to create a distinctive, logo-ready texture. It prioritizes visual punch and uniformity across letters and numerals, aiming for a cohesive system that feels engineered and robust.
The numerals match the letterforms in their faceted construction, resembling jersey or equipment markings, and the punctuation (e.g., apostrophe) keeps the same squared, clipped logic. Uppercase has a strong headline presence, while the lowercase maintains the same angular vocabulary for a cohesive texture in short words and labels.
