A condensed sans with a strongly faceted construction: curved strokes are replaced by straight segments and chamfered corners, creating octagonal bowls and clipped terminals. Strokes stay essentially monolinear, producing a firm, uniform color and a tight, vertical rhythm. Counters are compact and squared-off, with conspicuously angled joins in forms like O, C, G, and S; numerals follow the same beveled logic for a consistent, engineered silhouette.
Best suited to display roles where its angular silhouettes and condensed width can create impact—headlines, posters, sports or team-style branding, and bold labels or packaging. It can also work for short navigational signage or UI callouts when set with generous spacing and kept to brief text.
The overall tone is tough and utilitarian, with a stamped-metal or cut-vinyl feel. Its sharp planes and condensed stance read as disciplined and energetic, leaning toward sporty and industrial aesthetics rather than friendly or lyrical expression.
The font appears designed to translate a geometric, machined look into a compact, highly legible display sans, using planar facets to suggest precision and toughness. Its consistent chamfering and monoline structure indicate an intention to maintain a strong, uniform presence across letters and numbers.
The design’s faceting remains consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, helping mixed-case settings look cohesive. The condensed proportions and tight internal space make it most striking when given enough size and breathing room.
